TMZ Sports is reporting that Raiders LT Donald Penn is a suspect in a domestic violence incident after he allegedly slapped his wife’s butt and then poured a drink on her head.
According to the report,ย cops were called to Penn’s Los Angeles home Sunday evening, but Penn had already left the scene when they arrived.
Penn’s wife told police that he “got handsy” and slapped her butt before pouring a drink on her head and grabbing her by the wrist
TMZ says that police are currently investigating the matter.
Penn, 35, originally signed on with the Vikings as an undrafted free agent out of Utah State back in 2006. After a few months in Minnesota, Penn signed on with the Buccaneers during his rookie season and spent eight years in Tampa Bay before he was released back in 2014.
The Raiders signed Pennย to a contract soon after before signing him to a $21M extension last year.
In 2017, Penn appeared in 14 games for the Raiders and is rated by Pro Football Focus as the No. 23 offensive tackle out of 81 qualifying players.
