The defensive lineman is facing two counts of cruelty to dogs in the second degree.
Kansas City Chiefs defensive lineman Isaiah Buggs turned himself in to the Tuscaloosa County Jail on Thursday on misdemeanor animal cruelty charges. Buggs was later released on $600 bond for two counts of cruelty to dogs in the second degree. The Tuscaloosa Police Department found two dogs that were 'seriously malnourished' and 'emaciated' March 28 on the back porch of a house that Buggs had rented, according to court documents.
A Chiefs spokesman said the team was aware of the situation, but declined to comment. Buggs' agent, Trey Robinson, issued a statement this week saying that the player 'vehemently denies' the allegations and that the dogs didn't belong to him. 'Under no circumstances does Mr. Buggs condone the mistreatment of any animal,' Robinson said, declining to answer further questions.
