Dolphins' Jarvis Landry investigated for alleged domestic battery;
girlfriend says she wasn't harmed

Omar KellyContact Reporter
Sun Sentinel

Miami Dolphins receiver Jarvis Landry is under investigation for an
alleged domestic battery incident at his apartment in Fort Lauderdale
earlier this year, according to court records.

Estrella Cerqueira, who was Landry’s girlfriend and is the mother of his
daughter, released a statement Monday saying she was not harmed during a
“vocal disagreement” with Landry.

No arrest has been made, and the Broward County State Attorney’s office
is reviewing the case to determine if Landry will face formal charges.

“Fort Lauderdale police have presented to the State Attorney’s office
their investigation of an allegation against Mr. Landry,” State
Attorney’s office spokesman Ron Ishoy said in a statement Monday. “We
are now reviewing the matter; we do not expect a decision this week. I
have no other details.”

The incident was reported to police shortly before 10:30 p.m. on April
1, according to the incident report’s cover sheet. The full report is
not being released because the investigation is still open, police said
Monday. The report’s cover lists hands, fist, teeth and feet as weapons.

Court records show that Landry, 24, is the defendant in an open
paternity court case that was filed in April by Cerqueira.

Cerqueira released a statement Monday through Landry’s publicist that
said she and Landry had a “vocal disagreement that resulted in someone
calling 911.” Cerqueira’s statement says Landry never harmed her and
that police determined there was no cause for an arrest when they arrived.

“I was not in any way physically harmed,” the statement said. “Yes, we
are going through a civil family court case and emotions are high, but I
would like to make it very clear that Jarvis would never, ever do
anything to harm me or anyone else. Jarvis and I are happily raising our
beautiful daughter.”

Hyde5: Jarvis Landry and the baffling way analytics view him
Dolphins coach Adam Gase said Monday that team is aware of the
investigation.

Landry was not made available to speak to reporters at the conclusion of
Monday’s practice.

Landry is a two-time Pro Bowl selection who has led the Dolphins in
receptions for the past two seasons. He and his agent have been lobbying
for a multiyear contract extension this offseason after the former LSU
standout caught 94 passes for 1,136 yards and scored four touchdowns
last year.

Dolphins owner Steve Ross has discussed placing the franchise tag on
Landry after this season, which would commit $16 million to Miami’s slot
receiver and prevent him from becoming an unrestricted free agent.

Under NFL rules, Landry could be found to have violated the league’s
personal conduct policy even without an arrest or conviction. So, Landry
could possibly face a suspension depending on the details of the case.

Noteworthy that there's no suggestion that either Johnson nor the
Dolphins were thinking about him coming to Miami as a player.
