NFL Steelers Chris Rainey Arrested And FIRED After Pulling Chris Brown On GF (Updated Mugshot)

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Chris Rainey totally pulled a Chris Brown style beat-down on his girlfriend who for now we will call, Rihanna.

**UPDATE: Steelers General Manager Kevin Colbert has released the following statement,

“Chris Rainey’s actions this morning were extremely disappointing. Under the circumstances and due to this conduct, Chris will no longer be a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers.”

Rainy was arrested this morning in Florida and charged with battery after slapping his girlfriend in the face over an argument that quickly escalated over him getting a peek into her cellphone…

According to the Gainesville Police, officers responded to a 911 call from witnesses who claimed they saw Rainey attack his girlfriend after she took his cell phone … and tried to lock herself in Rainey’s roommate’s car.

According to the police report, witnesses said Rainey dragged his girlfriend out of the passenger seat and slapped her in the face in the process, causing both of them to fall to the ground.

Witnesses said Rainey’s GF then took off again with the cell phone in her purse … and Rainey continued the chase, eventually grabbing her purse … causing them both to fall again.

Police say neither Rainey nor his GF appeared visibly injured after the fight.

Rainey has been charged with one count of simple battery, a misdemeanor, and he’s currently in custody.
