Rams left tackle Alaric Jackson arrested on felony domestic violence charge

The Los Angeles Rams are dealing with a serious off-field development after offensive tackle Alaric Jackson was arrested on suspicion of felony domestic violence, according to confirmation from the Los Angeles Police Department to. The arrest follows a domestic battery call reported late Monday night in the West Hills area of Los Angeles, an incident that has raised immediate questions about the team’s offseason plans and the pending legal process for a key protector on the blind side.

Jackson, 27, was arrested on Tuesday and booked into the Van Nuys Community Police Station at 4:24 a.m., Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department jail records reviewed by show. He was released at 7:20 a.m. after posting $50,000 bond. The charge carries legal weight, and, as is standard in these cases, the allegations are separate from any ultimate finding by the courts.

also reported that officers responded to the domestic battery call at 7400 Cliffside Court in West Hills at 10:46 p.m. PT on Monday. A next court date has been set for June 30 in Los Angeles, according to ’s report. The Rams have not, as of this writing, publicly detailed how they will handle Jackson during the ongoing legal process, but teams typically navigate these situations through league and club policies while awaiting further information.

Jackson’s role makes the news especially consequential for a Rams team in the middle of its offseason. He signed with Los Angeles as an undrafted free agent in 2021 and became a regular starter in recent seasons, emerging as a starting tackle across 45 of 51 games over the past three years, according to. For an offense that depends on stability in pass protection, a starting left tackle’s absence, even temporarily, can force rapid adjustments among backups and swing linemen.

Contract information also underscores how central Jackson has been to the club’s long-term planning. reported that he signed a three-year, $57 million contract with the Rams during the 2025 offseason. That agreement increases the stakes for the organization, since the legal outcome and any discipline or availability questions could affect both the team’s near-term continuity and how it looks at future roster decisions.

On the football calendar, the Rams are moving through voluntary organized team activities, which continue Tuesday, with mandatory minicamp scheduled for June 15-16, reported. The practical impact of Jackson’s case will likely become clearer as the legal schedule approaches, including whether he is available for any offseason sessions and how the Rams structure their offensive line reps in his absence if needed.

Until more details emerge from court filings or further police documentation, the most important fact remains that Jackson is facing a felony domestic violence charge. For now, the team’s focus will be on compliance with policy and the immediate operational task of preparing an offensive line that can protect the quarterback, while recognizing that the situation is ongoing and the allegations must be resolved through the legal process.
