College Station, Texas – Le’Veon Moss, a 22-year-old running back for Texas A&M, was arrested early Sunday morning for disorderly conduct. The College Station Police Department reported that the incident occurred around 1 a.m., when Moss was observed shouting at an unidentified man. Witnesses noted that he assumed a fighting posture and threatened to assault the individual, using aggressive language.
The police intervened after observing Moss’s threatening behavior. Despite their presence, he reportedly continued to shout at the man, causing further disruption. Additional witnesses claimed that Moss was also interacting aggressively with others in his group. The incident was recorded on both body cameras and street surveillance footage, which may play a role in any further investigations or proceedings.
Moss was taken into custody, with his bond set at $300. He was released later that day on a personal bond, which allows defendants to be released without paying cash bail, provided they promise to appear for future court appearances. This type of bond is often utilized in cases where the defendant is not considered a flight risk.
Despite the legal issues he faces, Moss is expected to return to play this season after recovering from a knee injury he sustained during the 2024 season. Prior to his injury, Moss had a robust performance in the previous season, rushing for 765 yards and scoring 10 touchdowns in just nine games. His performance made him one of the leaders in rushing stats within the Southeastern Conference, with a notable average of 4.5 yards after contact.
As for the Texas A&M football program, no official statement regarding potential disciplinary actions against Moss has been made public. However, head coach Mike Elko has acknowledged the situation and indicated that it will be handled internally. This internal approach leaves open the possibility of consequences for Moss that could range from no action at all to suspension from the team, depending on the outcomes of both the legal process and the university’s conduct review.
The circumstances surrounding Moss’s arrest have raised questions about the behavior of student-athletes and the responsibilities that come with competing at a high level collegiate sports program. It is also a reminder of the scrutiny that players face not only on the field but off it as well.
The upcoming season for Texas A&M is poised to be pivotal, especially as they incorporate Moss’s talents back into their lineup. The program has placed emphasis on discipline and character, hoping to mitigate any distractions that could arise from incidents like this. As the legal process moves forward, the Texas A&M community is likely to keep a close watch on how both the university and Moss himself respond to this incident.
