STORY: Chad Johnson's Arrest Mugshot

According to ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter:

The six-time Pro Bowl receiver was released on $2,500 bond Sunday after his wife accused him of head-butting her during an argument in front of their home. Johnson was charged with simple domestic battery, a misdemeanor.

The confrontation came barely a month after Johnson married Evelyn Lozada, who is on the reality TV show "Basketball Wives."

Johnson, 34, has been battling for a spot on the team after a disappointing season with the New England Patriots in 2011.

Only five days earlier, first-year Dolphins head coach Joe Philbin said Johnson's roster spot could be in jeopardy if he didn't temper his freewheeling behavior. Johnson annoyed the coach by frequently using profanity during a session with reporters.

Following Sunday's practice, coach Joe Philbin said he would meet soon with Johnson, saying-

"We're going to deal with this...We're not going to waste time. ... We're all in this thing together. Everybody that sets foot in this building, we're all held to a high standard."
