One NFL rookie running back has made his road to getting on the field a lot harder for himself. Though given the charges, it's a bit hard to sympathize.

On Saturday, Cleveland Browns running back Quinshon Judkins was arrested in Broward County, Florida on charges of battery and domestic violence.
Further details on the crime he's been booked for are not currently available. He is still in jail as of writing and his initial court appearance will be on Sunday morning.
"Cleveland Browns rookie running back Quinshon Judkins was arrested on a domestic violence and battery charge in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, on Saturday, according to the Fort Lauderdale Police department and Broward County arrest records," ESPN's Daniel Ayefusi wrote.
"Judkins was still in jail as of Saturday night and scheduled to have his initial court appearance Sunday morning, according to court records."
Judkins was the No. 36 overall pick by the Browns in the 2025 NFL Draft. He was a record-breaking running back Ole Miss between 2022 and 2023 and helped the Ohio State Buckeyes win a national title in 2024.

But the domestic violence charges against him have caused the support and respect that Judkins has previously had to evaporate. Across social media, Judkins has been either condemned or mocked by fans in the hours since the news broke.
"Dude was so in position. On-field, off-field and fantasy. Then this," one user lamented.
"Oooof. And he's unsigned right? There goes that $. For sure lost any leverage he might've had," wrote another.
"Geez - first draft pick to be cut," a third predicted.
"You have your entire life in front of you and you fumble it."
"He's done.

The Browns used one of the picks they received in the blockbuster Day 1 trade with the Jacksonville Jaguars to bring him into the fold.
But like many second-round picks in this year's draft, he remains unsigned due to a dispute over the guaranteed money in the deal.
As some online have pointed out, Judkins' arrest is going to send any leverage he might have in negotiations up in smoke.
At this point he'll be lucky if he's even allowed to play football in Week 1, let alone if he's being paid the amount he wants.

Judkins' entire career could be in jeopardy before the first whistle of training camp.

A'ja Wilson's Mom Needed Just One Word To Make Aces Star Regret Her Postgame Outfit
A'ja Wilson's Mom Needed Just One Word To Make Aces Star Regret Her Postgame Outfit originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Las Vegas Aces star A'ja Wilson may have made history on the basketball court, but it was her mom who stole the show during Wilson's postgame press conference. Advertisement Fresh off her record-setting performance in the Aces' thrilling 104-102 win against the Golden State Valkyries, Wilson sat down with reporters at Michelob Ultra Arena in Las Vegas to discuss the game. However, before she could answer a question, her phone buzzed under the table. 'I'm sorry, can you say that one more time?' Wilson said, pausing mid-interview. 'My mom just sent me a picture of the way I look on this press conference. She sent me a picture and was like, 'Why?' Okay mom, I'm sorry.' Wilson, laughing, then pulled off her red headscarf right there at the press table. The viral moment was captured and shared by Bleacher Report on Instagram, where fans quickly flooded the comments section with relatable reactions. Advertisement 'Everyone needs a mama like this!' one fan wrote. Another joked, '😂😂😂 can always count on mom to humble us.' A third fan chimed in, '😂😂😂😂 Mama called a real-time family meeting!!!' echoing the universal feeling that moms always know how to keep their kids in check. 'That is so real! My mom would have done the same thing lol,' another follower shared. Someone else imagined Wilson's mom's text was 'definitely in all caps 😂.' One fan summed it up perfectly, saying, 'I'm dying laughing cause this is our moms 😂.'

Advertisement The reigning WNBA MVP sported a white sleeveless basketball jersey styled as a short dress, featuring red and blue accents, with 'Comets' and the number 14 on the front. She paired it with matching white shorts underneath, white knee-high socks, white athletic shoes, and the now-infamous red headscarf. After missing games due to a wrist injury earlier in the week, Wilson came back strong. She became the first player in WNBA history to score 34 points, grab 16 rebounds and record two blocks in a single game while shooting an incredible 70% from the field. Yet even on a historic night, Wilson learned one thing for certain: No one is safe from a mom's real-time feedback—even an MVP.

Wizards' No. 2 overall pick dunked on by former Gonzaga star Drew Timme
Sparks are flying in the NBA Summer League. On Sunday night, former Gonzaga star Drew Timme made his mark with 30 points for the Brooklyn Nets. One highlight over a notable Wizards player put an exclamation mark on a fantastic individual performance. Advertisement Midway through the second quarter, Timme executed his signature pick-and-roll action and got the ball driving down the lane. The Wizards' second overall pick, Alex Sarr, made the mistake of meeting Timme at the rim. The result was a rim-rocking highlight play. It wasn't a pretty moment for Sarr, but he had a highlight night of his own. The big man set a Summer League record with eight blocks. He also chipped in 16 points and 12 rebounds. The Wizards won 102-96. They also got 21 points from this year's sixth overall pick Tre Johnson. It's a tough individual moment but a great sign overall for Washington. Sarr's rookie season showed a need for growth if the Wizards want to get their return on investment. The future could be bright at Capital One Arena. Advertisement For Timme, his 30 points didn't lead to a win but they're not in vain. The former Gonzaga star is battling to stay in the league and explosive plays like his poster slam over Sarr showcase his talent. The real winner of the game is the Summer League, which is in need of new storylines after the announcement that Cooper Flagg will be shut down for the summer. It leaves space for a player like Sarr or Timme to take the spotlight like they did on Sunday night.
