Toney put his hand around a woman's throat “with enough force to cause her to be unable to breath(e)" on Jan. 14 at his home in Douglasville, about 20 miles (32 kilometers) west of Atlanta, according to an arrest warrant filed in court.
A 2021 first-round pick by the New York Giants, Toney helped the Kansas City Chiefs win the Super Bowl two years ago after they acquired him in a trade during the season.
Toney, 26, was arrested and booked into the Douglas County Jail on Feb. 6 on charges of aggravated assault and obstructing or hindering an emergency call, according to online jail records.
Toney also physically prevented the woman from calling 911, taking away her phone and canceling voice commands while physically assaulting her, a second warrant says.
In a three-minute span in the fourth quarter of Kansas City’s 38-35 win over Philadelphia in the Super Bowl, Toney made two monumental plays.
