Terrion Arnold worked out for the Houston Texans this week, his agent Nicole Lynn testified during a pre-trial virtual hearing in the NFL defensive back’s armed robbery and kidnapping case in Florida.
The hearing, a motion to modify restrictions of Arnold's bond, revolved around the state’s desire to put an ankle monitor on Arnold. Chief judge Christopher C. Sabella ruled last month that Arnold’s employment with the Detroit Lions was reason enough to not make him wear an ankle monitor.
The state, however, reacted to news of Arnold’s release June 29 by petitioning the court to wear the GPS monitor. The defense prepared Lynn to testify to demonstrate that Arnold has received interest from teams across the league, with four teams reaching out after the Lions moved on. Arnold cleared waivers, freeing him to sign with any team, July 6.
Pressed to reveal the teams who have inquired about Arnold, Lynn said the Texans flew Arnold in for a workout. The defending champion Seattle Seahawks, the Indianapolis Colts and the New York Jets have also reached out.
Arnold has been charged with three counts of kidnapping, three counts of armed robbery, one count of conspiracy to kidnap and one count of conspiracy to commit armed robbery in the wake of an alleged incident that took place in February. He could face life in prison if convicted.
Judge Jeffrey Rich upheld Sabella’s initial bond ruling – Arnold paid $1 million to be released – and reiterated that Arnold is allowed to leave his home in Tallahassee, Florida, for work or attorney-related meetings.
