Greg Hardy Arrested in Texas on New Assault Charge

Greg Hardy Arrested in Texas on New Assault Charge
  • PublishedJune 5, 2025

Here’s the latest installment of “Greg Hardy’s Guide to Life Choices.” He was taken into custody in Frisco, Texas, on June 4, 2025, after police say he assaulted a family member. Looks like “clean record” wasn’t on today’s agenda. According to the Frisco Police Department, officers responded to a domestic disturbance call around 11 p.m., arriving to find alleged injuries consistent with a physical altercation. The official charge: assault causing bodily injury to a family or household member. His bond was set at $5,000, and he remains free pending a court date, unless he decides to audition for “Orange Is the New Booking.”

Court documents obtained by the Dallas Morning News list Hardy’s offense under Texas Penal Code 22.01(a)(1). His mug shot shows the same expression he probably wore while picking which legal team to hire next. The Frisco jail log confirms his name, date of birth, and address—all courtesy of public record, should anyone wonder where to drop off sympathy cards. People magazine notes this latest arrest follows a 2014 domestic violence conviction in North Carolina, which ended his NFL career after stints with the Carolina Panthers and Dallas Cowboys. His post-football résumé now includes more court dates than touchdowns.

Hardy’s history isn’t exactly a sparkling highlight reel. He was found guilty of assault on his then-girlfriend in 2014, a felony conviction later vacated on appeal but still tarnishing his reputation and tanking his professional prospects. ESPN’s archives remind us he once led the league in sacks, now he’s leading a different kind of stat sheet entirely. His representatives haven’t returned requests for comment—probably busy drafting statements that dance around “alleged” more than he dances around consequences.

In a press release, Frisco Police Chief James Raymond emphasized that domestic violence is a serious matter, even if it seems to fuel more headlines than apologies. Raymond’s words: “We don’t tolerate violence against family or household members, regardless of someone’s celebrity status.” We’re still waiting for Hardy’s side of the story—though rumor has it he’s polishing a speech about personal growth that might need a rewrite.

If you’re keeping score, this is at least Hardy’s second high-profile legal showdown, proving once again that bad decisions age like milk. His next court appearance is scheduled for later this month in Collin County. Will he show up with a new life plan or just new excuses? Stay tuned to see which one folds faster. Tune in next time for more questionable choices and courtroom drama—we’ll bring the popcorn.
