Ex-Bengals, Dolphins RB Mark Walton Arrested for Violating Protection Order

Tyler ConwayFeb 27, 2020

Former NFL running back Mark Walton was arrested Thursday after allegedly violating a protection order filed by the mother of his child. 

TMZ Sports reported police responded to a domestic disturbance call at 3:30 a.m. ET Thursday in Florida and found Walton was arguing with the woman, who had previously filed a restraining order against him. Walton was then arrested and booked at the Miami-Dade County jail.

Walton has been arrested six times since January 2019. In November, the Miami Dolphins cut Walton after he was arrested on suspicion of battery of a woman who was pregnant with his child. He was arrested in January on a second count of battery of a pregnant woman dating back to March 2019. 

The Cincinnati Bengals released Walton in April 2019 after his first three arrests on various charges, including carrying a concealed firearm.

Walton was a 2018 fourth-round pick by the Bengals after playing college football at Miami. He compiled 235 yards on 67 rushing attempts in his NFL career.
