Former Boise State Broncos and Detroit Lions wide receiver Titus Young was reportedly arrested in Los Angeles for assault with a deadly weapon after "allegedly beating up a guy in a street fight," according to TMZ Sports.

Young was reportedly charged with "felony battery with serious bodily injury," a crime that carries up to a four-year prison sentence, per TMZ Sports.

Young has a checkered past, and previous legal troubles could wind up sending him to jail. According to TMZ, if convicted, Young would face an additional sentence of up to five years because of prior arrests in 2013 and 2014.
