Los Angeles Rams offensive lineman Alaric Jackson was arrested Monday night on suspicion of felony domestic violence as the NFL’s offseason domestic violence problem has begun growing to epidemic proportions.Jackson, 27, joins the growing list of current and former NFL players who this offseason have run afoul of the law and been arrested, charged, tried or sued in civil court over domestic violence allegations.It is a problem Fox News Digital asked the NFL to address on Tuesday. The league so far has not answered the request for comment.FORMER JETS FIRST-ROUND PICK DARRON LEE CHARGED WITH MURDER IN GIRLFRIEND’S DEATHJackson, the Rams’ starting left tackle the past three seasons, was taken into custody after Los Angeles police assigned to Topanga Area responded to a radio call of a “battery domestic violence” incident on the 7400 block of Cliffside Court in West Hills, the LAPD told Fox News Digital.Officers learned the player and a woman had gotten into a verbal argument because Jackson believed the woman was recording him with her phone, according to KNBC-TV. The 6-foot-7, 338-pounder took the phone out of her hands.Police said the woman had scratch marks on her arms.Jackson was arrested on suspicion of felony domestic violence and bail was set at $50,000. Due to California victim confidentiality requirements related to domestic violence investigations, no further information is being released at this time.The case will be submitted to the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office for filing consideration.This, of course, is another black eye for the NFL because rather than a narrative of the league’s offseason being about teams improving or preparing for minicamps, it is another example of domestic abuse by large, strong professional athletes against weaker women.And that has been the story multiple times this offseason.DISPATCH AUDIO REVEALS WHAT WAS HEARD INSIDE JOSH JACOBS’ HOME BEFORE ALLEGED DOMESTIC VIOLENCE ARRESTConsider some of the incidents:Denver Broncos linebacker Jonathon Cooper: Arrested June 4 in Colorado on domestic violence/criminal mischief allegations.
