His attorneys say he \u201cvehemently denies the allegations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jail records indicate he was held without bond, with strangulation and suffocation listed as a felony and the other charges as misdemeanors.The NFL says it is aware of the report and has been in contact with the club, while the Packers said the matter is ongoing and they will not comment further.
