All charges against Cincinnati Bengals cornerback Mackensie Alexander stemming from off-field events in August have been dropped.
According to ESPN’s Ben Baby, records show a misdemeanor battery charge levied against Alexander was dismissed this week. The veteran corner had filed for deferred prosecution in early December, leading to the dismissal of the charges alongside community service and anger management
Alexander was arrested in August while searching for his father, who had gone missing earlier that week. The charges stemmed from a reported confrontation he had with a man who allegedly left his father behind.
Alexander’s father, Jean Odney Alexandre, was later found alive.
With the odd saga and strong on-field season behind him, Alexander once again heads to free agency after completing his one-year contract with the Bengals.
