Summary
Douglas County court on Friday ordered Jonathon Cooper to have no contact with his girlfriend and seek approval for out-of-state travel after his second arrest in a week.
Court records say Cooper sent 20 messages, made 2 unanswered calls and went to her apartment Thursday, leading to new harassment and protection-order violation charges.
The stricter order follows Wednesday's added charges from his June 4 arrest, including felony second-degree assault by strangulation after a forensic nurse documented injuries consistent with choking.
The NFL said the case remains under review under its personal conduct policy, while the Broncos said they were disappointed and are reviewing the matter.
Cooper, 28, was released on a personal recognizance bond and faces hearings on July 6 and July 14, with trial set for July 22 just before training camp.
