NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Tennessee Titans running back Hassan Haskins was arrested and charged with aggravated assault by strangulation stemming from an alleged June 22 incident with his girlfriend.
Haskins was booked Thursday in Davidson County (Tennessee) and was released later in the day after posting a $10,000 bond.
“We are aware of the situation and gathering additional information,” the Titans said in a statement Friday night.
According to the police report, Haskins allegedly strangled his girlfriend, Makiah Green, on June 22 during a disagreement that stemmed from when he saw that she “liked” another man’s Instagram photo. The two got into an argument, resulting in Green allegedly throwing Haskins’ shoes on the floor. Haskins allegedly told her to stop, and when Green didn’t, he pushed her to the ground, then tossed her on a bed, where he used both hands to strangle her. The fight continued with the two allegedly slapping each other.
A second alleged incident occurred Thursday when the two were at dinner. Haskins allegedly left Green at the restaurant, and she had to take an Uber back to their house. Green saw Haskins in the house when she returned. She allegedly threw a glass at him and took refuge in their bedroom. Haskins allegedly kicked the door down, an argument ensued and Green allegedly ripped a $5,000 chain off his neck.
Haskins allegedly shattered Green’s phone. Green allegedly then grabbed Haskins’ phone, saw Snapchat notifications with photos of naked women in chats, shattered Haskins’ phone and assaulted him.
Haskins, in a statement provided to police, said Green attacked him with a broom and choked him from behind. He alleged she also threw his PlayStation 5, putting a hole in the wall, and furnished a video to support his statement.
Green was also jailed and charged with aggravated assault by strangulation and felony vandalism. She posted $7,500 bond and was released.
Haskins is scheduled for a court appearance on July 10 in front of Davidson County Judge Ana Escobar.
The Titans selected Haskins in the fourth round of the 2022 draft. The second-year running back had 25 carries for 93 yards and 11 reception for 57 yards last season.
