If Dolphins coach Joe Philbin didn’t like Chad Johnson’s language, he’s definitely not going to like this. Check out the latest updates. Gee whiz.
Reports USA Today:
Miami Dolphins receiver Chad Johnson has been arrested on domestic violence charges in Davie, Florida, according the Sun Sentinel. Johnson allegedly head-butted his wife Evelyn Lozada during an argument in a vehicle.
Lozado reportedly had lacerations on her forehead when police arrived on the scene.
Johnson has been in the news a lot recently. The veteran receiver recently changed his name back from Ochocinco to Johnson, signed with the Dolphins after being released by the New England Patriots and immediately became the star in the debut of this season’s Hard Knocks series on HBO.
But perhaps his biggest news was marrying Lozado this summer. She is a star of the VH1 reality show the Basketball Wives.
Update #1:
Word on the street is they were fighting over a box of condoms. “Allegedly” the condoms belonged to…Evelyn. Allegedly.
Update #2:
Miami Dolphins beat-writer Ben Volin confirms my source.
Davie police spokesman said fight between Chad Johnson and his wife started over a receipt for a box of condoms

Considering Johnson’s arrest happened tonight, there’s a chance it will be addressed in Tuesday’s episode of Hard Knocks

Update #3:
The Dolphins have issued a statement in response to the arrest of receiver Chad Johnson for domestic violence. “We are aware of the situation and are in the process of gathering all the relevant information,” team spokesman Harvey Greene told PFT via email.
Update #4 via Global Grind:
In an odd coincidence, Chad Johnson seemed to predict his arrest when said in the 1st episode of HBO’s Hard Knocks series (just last week), which is following the Dolphins this year, “Hey Stu, I promise I’m getting arrested while we’re off.” Check out Chad at 40:25.
Update #5 via TMZ:
Our sources say Lozada has been at the hospital for several hours and her injury will require stitches.
Update #6: The Mugshot.
I see said the blind man. And now…
This is EbenGregory.com…telling you call from Miami Dolphins brass in 5…4…3…2…1. Damn Chad.
relationship math 101: A 10 on the outside does not necessarily equal a 10 on the inside.
if they’re married, there’s no reason for him to wear condoms with his wife, unless, he is allegedly TRICKING!
Whats good for the goose is good for the gander…accusations included..oh And nice FONTS @ Eben
Rumors say the argument was over a “receipt” for condoms…. Ni$$as don’t keep receipts for condoms. They pay cash for that one item and walk out before the the receipt is printed. Chicks are the ones who charge it to they card along with everything else they get from CVS…then stuff the receipt in they purse like it ain’t nothing. That broad was trouble from Day UNO!!!
She knew he was a cheater when she met him. A leopard don’t change it’s spot.
They were hers. What part of that you don’t get?
He f**ked up when he married. Kiss the baby Chad.
Like I said before they should not have gotten married. Smh
Ummm…..the condoms were allegedly hers not his. But she wanted to put Jennifer on blast on BBW. WOW!
