ATLANTA -- Atlanta Falcons linebacker Michael Boley was charged with battery after his wife accused him of becoming "physical" after an argument.

Boley, 25, was arrested Saturday at his Dacula home and released on $1,200 bond for the misdemeanor.
The Gwinnett County Police Department issued a release but not a full report Monday, saying officers were called to the home following a verbal argument between Boley and his wife, Chantelle.
According to police, Chantelle Boley said Michael Boley "became physical with her" during the argument.
The arrest of a prominent player is news the Falcons were hoping to avoid as they attempt to move past the Michael Vick era with a new coach, Mike Smith, and new general manager, Thomas Dimitroff.
"The Falcons organization is aware of the situation and will have no comment at this time," Falcons spokesman Reggie Roberts said.

 

But I thought that was part of "making up?" That's a good thing, right?
