SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. - Arizona Cardinals player Ricky Seals-Jones is facing assault, disorderly conduct and criminal trespassing charges after he was arrested outside a Scottsdale hotel early Sunday morning.
According to police documents from the Scottsdale Police Department, Seals-Jones got into an altercation with employees of the W Hotel located near Scottsdale and Camelback roads.
Documents reveal that the Cardinals tight-end tried to enter the hotel, but there was a barrier at the door.
"I hopped over the barricade that they had, cuz I had to piss," Seals-Jones told the police, according to the documents.
Seals-Jones told an officer that he was trying to go the bathroom at the Sushi Roku restaurant inside the hotel when hotel staff told him he couldn't enter the area, police documents read. Seals-Jones said he then tried to walk past the hotel employees and was pushed to the ground.
Seals-Jones told the officer at the time of the fight, he only asked the hotel staff to walk him to the front entrance to get his vehicle which was parked in valet from the night prior.
He said the altercation began inside the hotel but wound up in the middle of the valet parking area where he was taken into handcuffs by police.
Seals-Jones' arrest documents were released the same day the Arizona Cardinals confirmed General Manager Steve Keim has pleaded guilty to extreme DUI.
