McDowell was arrested for public exposure and beating a deputy on Monday in Deerfield Beach, Florida.

Court records showed that McDowell faces charges of aggravated battery, resisting an officer and exposing his sexual organs in public.

A judge found probable cause for the charges during the NFL player’s first court appearance on Tuesday morning.

According to a police report, obtained by the Sun-Sentinel, the attack was allegedly “violent” and left the deputy “dazed.”

The document also indicated that McDowell is still on probation in Michigan.

This is not McDowell’s first run-in with law enforcement.

Back in September 2017, the star was hit with a DUI and just months later – in December – an allegation of disorderly conduct.

In February 2019, he was charged with operating a vehicle while intoxicated, resisting arrested, and assault.

The league went on to suspend him for two games following this.

McDowell was a second-round pick of the Seattle Seahawks in 2017. He is now a defensive tackle for the Cleveland Browns.

Following the news, a Browns spokesperson said: “We are aware of the very concerning incident and arrest involving Malik McDowell and are in the process of gathering more information.

“We understand the severity of this matter and our thoughts are for the well-being of all involved.”

McDowell appeared in 15 games for the Browns this season and finished with 19 solo tackles and three sacks.
