    Kadarius Toney’s girlfriend was 7 months pregnant when he allegedly choked her, 911 call shows

    The 911 call that led to the arrest of two-time Super Bowl champion Kadarius Toney shows his girlfriend claiming she was strangled while seven months pregnant. 

    TMZ obtained the audio in which the unidentified woman said she and the former Kansas City Chiefs receiver got into an “altercation,” which allegedly led to Toney getting physical with her. 

    The Jan. 14 incident occurred in Douglasville, Georgia.

    “He put his hands on me while holding my daughter, and I’m seven months pregnant,” the woman says in the audio. 

    The woman also said she placed the call from a neighbor’s house after having to “run” from her own home. 

    The woman also mentioned that she and Toney, a first-round pick by the New York Giants in 2021, lived together. 

    KADARIUS TONEY, CHIEFS’ SUPER BOWL HERO, ARRESTED FOR ALLEGEDLY STRANGLING A WOMAN

    According to TMZ Sports, Toney is accused of putting his hand around the woman’s throat and squeezing “with enough force to cause her to be unable to breathe.”

    He is also accused of taking the woman’s phone during the altercation so she couldn’t call for help. She is also said to have had marks on her neck and hemorrhaging in her eyes. 

    Jail records say Toney was charged with one count of aggravated assault-strangulation and another charge of obstructing/harassing 911 calls.

    Fox News Digital reached out to a representative of Toney for comment but has not heard back. 

    Toney was the 20th overall pick of the 2021 NFL Draft out of Florida after the Giants traded down from No. 11. 

    Despite showing small flashes of his shifty ability on the field in New York, he was traded to the Chiefs midway through his second NFL season, and it worked out in favor of his new squad. 

    Toney’s finest moment came during hte 2023 Super Bowl, when he had a record-breaking punt return and a fourth quarter touchdown to help the Chiefs beat the Philadelphia Eagles. 

    But Toney was left off last year’s Super Bowl roster, though he received a ring for his efforts during the regular season with the team. He did not play in the team’s final seven games, including the playoffs.

    Toney played just three games during the 2024 season with the Cleveland Browns, never making a catch.

    Former New York Giants and Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Kadarius Toney was arrested last month after police say he strangled a woman.

    Toney is accused of putting his hand around a woman’s throat, squeezing “with enough force to cause her to be unable to breathe,” according to TMZ Sports.

    Toney was accused of taking the woman’s phone during the altercation so she couldn’t call authorities, leaving her with marks on her neck and hemorrhaging in her eyes.

    The 2021 first-round pick had a warrant out for his arrest Jan. 15, one day before the alleged altercation, and he was arrested Thursday.

    He was charged with one count of aggravated assault-strangulation and another charge of obstructing/harrassing 911 calls, according to jail records.

    Fox News Digital reached out to a representative of Toney for comment. 

    Toney was the 20th pick out of Florida four years ago by the Giants. After a tumultuous tenure in New York, he was sent to the Kansas City Chiefs. His record-breaking punt return in the 2023 Super Bowl and fourth quarter touchdown helped the Chiefs to that year’s Super Bowl victory.

    However, his tenure with the Chiefs ended similarly, and he was left off last year’s Super Bowl roster. There became a war of words about whether Toney had been healthy, and he did not play in the team’s final seven games of the season, including the playoffs.

    Toney played in just one game this past season for the Cleveland Browns. He muffed a punt, was hit with a taunting penalty and was released just days later.
