The Patriots offensive line has been banged up this year with David Andrews (60) out for the year.
Former New England Patriots’ offensive guard, Shaq Mason, was arrested Wednesday morning after an alleged domestic assault in Tennessee.
“Court documents and Franklin, Tennessee, police say that Mason broke into the mother of his child’s home just after 3 a.m. Wednesday morning and choked her out, before allegedly saying ‘he was going to kill her’,” SI’s Ethan Hurwitz recounts.
Mason spent seven seasons with the Patriots, winning the 2017 and 2019 Super Bowls with the team. He was drafted by the team in 2015 and remained under contract until 2023 when he joined the Houston Texans.
He was released by the Texans this May, after started 35 games on their offensive line in two seasons.
“The 31-year-old Mason was charged with one count of aggravated assault, one count of aggravated burglary, one count of harassment and one count of driving on a suspended license,” Hurwitz continued. “His bond is set at $150,000, according to TMZ. Court documents obtained by TMZ also state that Mason has remained in police custody, as of Wednesday afternoon.”
Police officers confirm wounds on the woman’s face. Reports also claim that Mason sent her a selfie photograph captioned “I’m gonna kill you”.
Mason is scheduled to have a court hearing in October.
