Edwards charged with misdemeanor assault

Former Browns and current Jets receiver Braylon Edwards has been charged with misdemeanor assault stemming from accusations that he punched a man outside a Cleveland nightclub in early October.

From ESPN.com:

Cleveland city prosecutor Victor Perez filed the charge Monday. It carries a maximum sentence of six months in jail and a $1,000 fine. An arraignment was scheduled for Nov. 17 in Cleveland Municipal Court.

I highly doubt Edwards sees any jail time, but you never know. Witnesses that have been interviewed by the media claim that Edwards definitely threw the punch, but Braylon says a member of his crew threw the haymaker and not him.

Let the he said, she said commentary begin.
