A Florida state attorney said Monday his office won't determine Brantley's charges until after the start of the 2017 NFL Draft as he was accused of striking a woman April 13, according to ESPN's Mark Schlabach.

Brantley allegedly knocked the woman unconscious and took out one of her teeth outside a Florida bar. She reportedly had to be taken to hospital.

Prior to the alleged incident, Brantley was projected as a possible second-round pick.
