Former Broncos quarterback Chad Kelly is due in court on Monday to be arraigned on a felony charge of first-degree trespassing, the Denver Post’s Sam Tabachnik writes.
The charge stems from an Oct. 23 incident when the backup signal-caller allegedly walked into a family’s house after departing Von Miller‘s Halloween party. According to the arrest affidavit, Kelly sat down next to a woman on her couch and mumbled incoherently. He was then attacked by the man who lived there with an aluminum tube from a vacuum cleaner, forcing the quarterback out of the house. He was later arrested outside the Gothic Theatre, the site of the party. The Broncos later released him.
A highly touted quarterback in college, Kelly saw his draft stock slip for maturity concerns. Obviously, the aforementioned incident hasn’t done much to remove those concerns. Before the incident, however, Kelly was impressing Broncos brass with his play in the preseason, completing 66.7 percent of his passes for 466 yards and three touchdowns in four games, including one start.
He recently announced his attempt at a comeback, tweeting a clip of him throwing to a receiver.
Idiot, if he hadn’t been such a knucklehead, he could have been starting for Broncos.
Thug
He got drunk and made a mistake, so he’s a “thug?” Stupid comment
The punk has repeated bad behavior since high school. Time to grow up.
A mistake is something you do once. Might want to go back and review his criminal history buddy
WOW… can’t believe I’m in agreement with Ironman. Dude has had 3-4 chances
Well aware of his “criminal” history, I live in Buffalo, buddy
Then you should know he’s a thug
He’s not a thug, he has an alcohol problem and needs to get help.
Jyo is right, thugs don’t walk into someone’s house and sit on the couch with the family lmao
He once threatened to shoit up a bar. A habitual criminal. Sorry snowflake he’s a thug
People that have done less have been labeled as thugs in the media so yeah that clown is a thug and worse.
Haha he’s a repeat offender, do some reading
Shut up with that s@$t!
I’m betting he gets another chance. He’ll do AA or some other detox, claim to be changed and teams desperate for a QB will give him a shot. Here’s hoping he has changed.
The only reason he has had so many chances is his Uncle Jim Kelly. He is a PUNK
One time I got drunk and woke up in someone’s minivan parked in their driveway. Lucky I didn’t get shot.
Lol
I would love to see a re-enactment of this ridiculous story. Sounds like something off of curb your enthusiasm haha what an idiot.
The Broncos have been playing trick or treat on their fans all season, masquerading as a football team. It’s ironic that the guy who chose not to go along on that caper got busted.
The Bills should pick him up and groom him as a backup to Allen. He’s a hometown boy and nephew to Jim. Bills mafia will accept him even with all his baggage provided he doesn’t screw up again. Keep Barkley as the backup until he proves himself, Kelly should be the better QB in the long run.
