Titans’ Hassan Haskins charged with aggravated assault

Tennessee Titans running back Hassan Haskins is in legal trouble, as he has reportedly been charged with aggravated assault by strangulation.

According to police records obtained by  Scoop: Nashville, Haskins and his ex-girlfriend were both jailed due to an alleged domestic violence exchange.

Haskins himself was charged with aggravated assault by strangulation after he allegedly strangled the woman after she “liked” another man’s photo on the social media app, Instagram.

The report also states the Titans running back allegedly brandished a gun in a separate exchange a week later later in which the woman, Makiah Green, allegedly “assaulted him physically.”

Here are some more of the details, per Wayne Steen of Scoop: Nashville.

According to police records, Hassan Haskins observed his girlfriend ‘like’ an Instagram photo of another man at around Noon on June 22. The two argued, and she began to throw his shoes onto the floor, causing him to be angered and demand she stops touching his things. When she didn’t stop, he reportedly pushed her to the ground, causing an injury to the back of her head.

She says he then pulled her from the closet as she fought back and tossed her onto the bed, where he strangled her with both hands for approximately 10-15 seconds. Once he released her, the two exchanged slaps and continued fighting. He eventually threw her to the ground, where she fell atop a dog crate and was strangled a second time. He fled the home shortly after, and she took photos of bruises to her face, neck, and shoulder which she provided to police.

Fast Forward to June 29, and Hassan and Makiah are at Bourbon Steak by Michael Mina, eating dinner while discussing ending their relationship. He abruptly left the restaurant, leaving her to wait for an Uber to return home. She returned home to find Haskins already inside. She threw a glass at him, shattering it, and then locked herself inside their bedroom. She says Haskins kicked and punched through the door, breaking it in half, so he could enter. During the subsequent argument, she ripped a $5,000 chain from his neck, breaking it.

Haskins then shattered her phone, which was on the nightstand. She then retrieved Haskins’ old iPhone so she could call her mother. When she turned on the phone, she says the screen filled with notifications and messages from his Snapchat, and it was a barrage of naked women and chats with them. She then shattered that phone and then assaulted him physically, which she says was from being extremely upset. Makiah then retrieved a knife from the kitchen and moved toward the garage to slash the tires of his vehicle. Haskins reportedly cocked a gun and said, “I hope you would!”

The Titans told Scoop: Nashville that they “are aware of the situation and gathering additional information.”

Haskins was a fourth-round pick of the Titans in 2022 and appeared in 15 games for the team during his rookie season.
