It’s never really alarming or breaking news when an NFL player gets arrested, but it is a bit of a surprise when that player isn’t a Bengal.

Steelers linebacker James Harrison was arrested over the weekend for assaulting his girlfriend.

The couple had been arguing before just before 1 p.m. when Tibbott locked herself in a bedroom, the police said.

While Tibbott was trying to call 911, Harrison broke down the door, took her cell phone and broke it in half, according to police. Tibbott said Harrison then hit her across the face with an open hand and knocked off her glasses.

Police said Tibbott had “red marks” on her left cheek. She had called them after the alleged assault, saying she was afraid of Harrison.

This will be one of many arrests during this off-season. Give people with little brains lots of money and freedom, and these things are bound to happen. The over/under for Pacman’s next arrest is July 4. Think hard about it.
