January 1, Eagles Player Indicted on Felony Charges Ahead of Super Bowl

Published

A player on the NFL’s Philadelphia Eagles has been indicted on felony rape and kidnapping charges in his home state of Ohio, less than two weeks before his team is set to play in the Super Bowl.

The Ohio Attorney General’s Office announced the indictment against Eagles offensive lineman Josh Sills, 25, on charges stemming from an incident that took place on Dec. 5, 2019.

The Guernsey County Sheriff’s Office investigated the incident, and a grand jury indicted Sills on one felony count of rape and one felony count of kidnapping.

Prosecutors said that Sills “did engage in sexual conduct” with a victim and “purposely compelled her to submit by force or threat of force.”

According to the indictment, the NFL rookie also allegedly “did, by force, threat, or deception, remove” the victim from “the place where she was found or restrain the liberty of her for the purpose of facilitating the commission of a felony.”

Sills is scheduled to appear in court on Feb. 16 in Cambridge, Ohio — four days after the Eagles face the Kansas City Chiefs in the Super Bowl in Arizona.

“The organization is aware of the legal matter involving Josh Sills,” the Eagles said in a statement. “We have been in communication with the league office and are in the process of gathering more information. We have no further comment at this time.”

The Eagles signed Sills in 2022 as an undrafted free agent. He played one game this season in Week 5.
