KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — A second Tennessee player has been arrested in connection with a brawl at a bar near campus early Friday, and police say more could be facing charges.
The Knox County Detention Facility says rising sophomore defensive back Darren Myles Jr. was charged with assault, resisting arrest and evading arrest. He is being held on $2,000 bond. It’s the second offseason arrest for the Atlanta native, who was recruited by former coach Lane Kiffin.
Incoming freshman receiver Da’Rick Rogers was charged earlier Friday with disorderly conduct and resisting arrest. The Calhoun, Ga., native was one of coach Derek Dooley’s top recruits.
Witnesses say two patrons got into a fight and several others joined in. An off-duty officer who was a patron suffered a head injury trying to break up the fight.
