A grand jury indictment says that Josh Sills of the Philadelphia Eagles football team allegedly engaged in nonconsensual sexual activity with a woman and held her against her will in December 2019
Philadelphia Eagles offensive lineman Josh Sills was indicted on rape and kidnapping charges in Ohio on Tuesday — two weeks before the football team prepares to play in the Super Bowl against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Sills, who is in his rookie season with the NFL, was indicted by a Guernsey County Common Pleas Court grand jury on one count of rape and one count of kidnapping, the Ohio Attorney General’s Office said in a statement on Wednesday.
Both first-degree felony charges stem from an alleged incident in December 2019, when the 6-foot, 6-inch guard was still in college, playing for the West Virginia Mountaineers. According to the indictment, Sills is accused of engaging in nonconsensual sexual activity with a woman and holding her against her will.
