Vernon Davis Vows to Clear His Name After Assault Allegations Trigger Arrest Warrant

The retired tight end says he intends to contest the claims ahead of a February court appearance.

Overview

  • A criminal complaint filed Jan. 8 alleges Davis hit a woman with magazines and books during a May 31, 2025 dispute over her pregnancy and offered her $10,000.
  • The woman says a June 7 confrontation followed in which Davis allegedly slapped her and that she recorded him later saying, "If I really slapped you, your face would be blue/black."
  • She also alleges a prior altercation that left visible bruises and references an open strangulation and assault case tied to that earlier incident.
  • An arrest warrant for assault and battery was issued the same day as the complaint, with a court date set for February 2026.
