Chiefs linebacker Willie Gay Jr. suspended four games following January misdemeanor
Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Willie Gay Jr. has been suspended without pay for the next four games without pay for violating the NFL’s Personal Conduct Policy, according to NFL insider Tom Pelissero.
“The suspension stems from a January arrest for misdemeanor property damage after an argument with the mother of his son. He agreed to a pre-trial diversion program in June,” Pelissero wrote.
In January of 2022, the Mississippi State product was arrested for misdemeanor damage to property after he damaged a, vacuum, cell phone screen, door frame and a humidifier, according the initial reportings at the time.
Entering his third season in the NFL, Gay has amassed 16 total tackles through two games for Kansas City this season. In total, he’s compiled 103 tackles two interceptions and one forced fumble.

WATCH: Derwin James power bombs Travis Kelce
Los Angeles Chargers safety Derwin James did a great job defending Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce through the first three quarters of Thursday Night Football. But his play of the night came late in the third period at Arrowhead Stadium.
After Kelce caught a pass from Patrick Mahomes, James literally lifted him up and slammed him to the ground, causing the ball to come out. But the officials ruled Kelce down by contact, meaning the Chiefs kept possession of the ball.
Still, James’ hit went viral on social media almost immediately.
