Kansas City Chiefs Cut Cornerback for Allegedly Pulling a Gun on a Vegas Valet

Damon Arnette only joined the team two weeks ago under a reserves contract.

Damon Arnette, 25, of the Kansas City Chiefs was arrested in Las Vegas Friday night for menacing a parking valet with a gun. The NFL cornerback allegedly tried to access a car without a valet ticket at the Park MGM on Las Vegas Boulevard and then whipped out a gun when he was approached by the valet. He was arrested for assault with a deadly weapon and carrying a concealed weapon, as well as illegal drug possession. The Kansas City Chiefs immediately cut ties with Arnette after the arrest. He joined the team less than two weeks ago under a reserves contract, which allows the team to evaluate a player before actually putting him on the field. The tenuous nature of the contract was due, ironically, to a November incident in which Arnette was cut from the Las Vegas Raiders for posting a threatening video of himself wielding a gun. He is set to appear in court Saturday.
