Josh Sills, an undrafted rookie in 2022 who made the 53-man roster with the Eagles, has been indicted on charges of rape and kidnapping.
Via TMZ.com, the allegations arise from an incident that occurred on December 5, 2019, in his home state of Ohio. He allegedly “engaged in sexual activity that was not consensual and held a victim against her will.”
Sills is due to appear in court on February 16, just four days after Super Bowl LVII.
Sills played college football at West Virginia and Oklahoma State. He appeared in only one game for Philadelphia in 2022.
His relative importance to the team and the serious nature of the charges could (and perhaps should) result in Sills summarily being released by the Eagles.
