The Seahawks signed Browner, 31, in April to a no-risk, one-year contract for the NFL’s veteran minimum of $760,000, none of it guaranteed.
TMZ confirms with the Ponoma Police Department in California they were called to investigate an incident of Browner allegedly attacking his child’s grandfather in the driveway of the mother of the child’s home. The father of Browner’s girlfriend went to the house, where he and Browner had an altercation in the driveway, according to police. Police believe the incident started as a heated telephone conversation between the two men, then escalated after the father-in-law walked to Browner’s home.
After Browner left, the alleged victim filed a police report claiming he suffered a hand injury.
