Broncos Star Cooper Faces New Charges
12 Jun
Summary
- Broncos player arrested on Thursday night for new charges.
- Cooper faces domestic violence, harassment, and protection order violations.
- This arrest follows a recent plea of not guilty in another DV case.
Denver Broncos pass rusher Jonathon Cooper was arrested on Thursday, June 12, 2026, in Colorado, facing four new charges. Cooper is currently held at Douglas County Jail, with charges including two counts of domestic violence, one count of harassment via repeated telephone calls, and one count of violation of a protection order.
The 28-year-old player's arrest occurred on Thursday evening, and he is scheduled for a court appearance on Friday morning. The Broncos organization stated they are reviewing the matter.
This latest legal trouble for Cooper surfaces shortly after he entered a not guilty plea in a domestic violence case originating from an altercation the prior week. He and his girlfriend were previously arrested by Parker police following a dispute over damaged cell phones, which reportedly stemmed from accusations of infidelity.
Further details revealed that Cooper would face additional charges related to the earlier arrest, including felony second-degree assault by strangulation and misdemeanor third-degree assault. These charges were announced in court on Wednesday, following his initial court appearance and release on a personal recognizance bond last Friday.
