Miami Dolphins wide receiver Chad Johnson was arrested on a charge of domestic violence on Saturday night, according to the Davie (Fla.) Police Department.
Police said Johnson head-butted his wife, "Basketball Wives" star Evelyn Lozada, in the head during an argument while driving home from dinner. She was treated at the scene for a "pretty good-sized" laceration and later taken to the hospital, Cpt. Dale Engle told NFL.com and NFL Network.
Police said a "heated argument" started when Johnson found a receipt for condoms in the car.
Johnson told police that he and his wife accidentally knocked heads.
Johnson remains in custody and won't be eligible for release until a bail hearing is set, which could be as late as Monday, Engle said.
The receiver's agent, Drew Rosenhaus, had no comment about the arrest when reached by NFL.com and NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
