No criminal charges have been filed against Rams offensive lineman Alaric Jackson, more than a month after he was arrested and accused of felony domestic battery.
The Los Angeles City Attorney’s Office told NBC Los Angeles that it does not have a criminal case filed against Jackson. The case is not closed and could be re-evaluated in the future, Jackson may be able to avoid facing charges by taking other actions such as attending a pre-trial diversion class, paying restitution or performing community service.
Jackson was arrested on June 8 after police were called to his home over a call saying Jackson and a woman had an argument, Jackson thought the woman was recording him with her phone and allegedly tried to take the phone out of her hand. Police said the woman had scratch marks on her arms. The woman reportedly reminded Jackson during the altercation that she was pregnant, to which Jackson replied, “I don’t give a fuck.”
Even if Jackson never faces criminal charges, it’s possible he could be disciplined under the NFL’s personal-conduct policy, depending on the outcome of the league’s own investigation.
In 2024, the NFL suspended Jackson two games as a result of a woman reporting that Jackson recorded her during sex without consent, refused to delete the video and taunted her with it. The woman filed a lawsuit against Jackson in November.
Last year the Rams signed Jackson to a three-year, $57 million contract extension. Jackson started 16 regular-season games and all three postseason games for the Rams last season.
