Miami Dolphins Chad Johnson Arrested for Head Butting Wife Evelyn Lozada, Domestic Violence … bond was set at $2,500 (Update: Dolphins Terminate Johnson’s Contract)

Chad Johnson, the WR formerly known as Ocho Cinco, was arrested Saturday night for misdemeanor domestic battery in Florida. The Miami Dolphin wide receiver allegedly headbutted his wife, Evelyn Lozada, after a heated argument. That did not take long, the two have not been married a little over a month and she is receiving head lacerations from headbutts. NICE. The real question is whether the Dolphins will continue o deal with him or cut him loose. Johnson’s defense attorney, Adam Swickle, says Johnson posted the bond Sunday morning, though jail records show he had not yet been released.

Although Johnson has been ordered to steer clear of Lozada, he is not prevented from returning to his home, which sits in a gated community in Davie, if she’s not there.

Davie Police arrested and charged Johnson Saturday evening with domestic violence, after a heated argument with Lozada turned bloody. Police say Lozada, as the couple were returning to their Davie home after dinner, became upset after finding a receipt for condoms in Johnson’s car.

By the time the couple pulled into their driveway, the argument had escalated, police said, and Lozada told police that Johnson headbutted her.

“She has a pretty good-sized laceration on her forehead,” said Davie Police Capt. Dale Engle.

The couple have been married for a little over a month.

Personally, Chad Johnson, Ocho Cinco or what ever this punk wants to call himself is not worth the headache. He more than showed last year with the Patriots that his skills are gone and the headaches far out way his talents. The Dolphins with a new coach and what looks to be a new QB hardly need this distraction. Sometimes you just have to cut a man loose.

UPDATE I: The Miami Dolphins have terminated Chad Johnson’s contract in the wake of his arrest on alleged domestic violence.  It would appear that Johnson was released from jail and from the Dolphins.
