Jerramy Stevens, the former Washington Huskies star who was once accused of armed assault and rape, is appeared in Kirkland Municipal Court on Tuesday for a domestic violence charge.
Stevens appeared at 1 p.m. to answer a fourth-degree assault charge. More information was not immediately available.
Stevens, who also played for the Seattle Seahawks in the mid-2000s, is rumored to be dating U.S. soccer star Hope Solo. They were seen together at a Washington soccer game this weekend, and the rumor mill has started up on Twitter that the two are engaged to be married.
There was no immediate indication Tuesday that Solo was involved in the domestic violence arrest. However, she was present in the courtroom Tuesday.
The court appearance is yet another blotch on Stevens' already spotted legal record. His most recent publicized arrest came in March 2011, when he allegedly atttacked two bouncers at a Tampa, Fla., bar.
Stevens' legal issues date to assault and drug arrests while he was a high-schooler at River Ridge in Olympia. During college at Washington, he pled guilty to hit-and-run after a well-publicized driving incident in which he ran his vehicle into a nursing home in 2000.
In 2007, when he was with the Seahawks, he was convicted of drunken driving in Arizona and was given a 30-day jail sentence. The incident also got him an NFL suspension, and his off-field problems led to his release from the Seahawks in 2007.
