Former Rams running back Zac Stacy has been sentenced to 6 months in jail for domestic violence

Former St. Louis Rams running back Zac Stacy has been sentenced to six months in jail for attacking his ex-girlfriend. The two separate incidents occurred in 2021, first in August and again in November.

On Monday night, an Orange County judge in Florida handed down the sentence; it also includes one year probation.

Earlier this month, Stacy pled guilty to two counts of criminal mischief but battery charges were dropped as part of the plea agreement.

In court documents, according to TMZ, Stacy’s ex-girlfriend said he “physically assaulted me several times because he wanted the money back he gave me for our rent.”

“He punched my legs, slapped me, picked me up by my arms, and threw me into my window, which broke,” she continued. “I had glass in my feet that I removed myself.”

In the incident that occurred in November of 2021, Stacy was seen on video throwing his ex-girlfriend across the room into a TV, also punching her multiple times.

Stacy played for the Rams in 2013 and 2014 before being traded to the Jets in 2015.

Former Rams running back Zac Stacy was arrested in Florida on Thursday after a video surfaced allegedly showing him beating his ex-girlfriend in front of their 5-month-old child, according to FOX35 in Orlando. Stacy faces charges of aggravated battery and criminal mischief.

The alleged assault was caught on a camera inside the home of Stacy’s ex-girlfriend. It showed Stacy allegedly punching his ex-girlfriend multiple times and throwing her across the room into a TV, which fell on top of her. The video was obtained by TMZ Sports on Thursday. According to TMZ’s report, the woman was treated for her injuries at a local hospital.

The Orlando police department issued the following statement Friday.

“The Orlando Police Department received information that NFL Player, Zac Stacy, wanted out of Orange County/ City of Oakland for Aggravated Battery in a Domestic Violence case was arriving at the Orlando International Airport. Our officers made contact with Stacy as he exited an inbound flight from Nashville and placed him in custody.

“Stacy was transported to the Orange County Jail without incident.”

Stacy played two seasons with the Rams after being drafted in 2013 out of Vanderbilt. He was then traded to the Jets in 2015 after Todd Gurley was selected in the first round, but he played just eight games with New York and has not taken an NFL snap since.

The alleged incident occurred on Saturday at the home of Stacy’s ex-girlfriend, according to TMZ Sports, who obtained video of the altercation recorded inside of her home. Stacy allegedly punched her multiple times and threw her across the room into a TV, which subsequently fell on top of her. Stacy then stood over her and threw an object at her before allegedly slamming her into the child’s bouncy seat.

Police were immediately called to the scene, but Stacy fled before they arrived. The woman said she was treated at a hospital for her injuries and had filed a restraining order against Stacy.

“He punched me several times in the head! I begged him to stop because the baby was on the couch just a few feet from where he punched me,” she said in the restraining order, which was obtained by TMZ. “I fear for my life and my children’s lives.”

Stacy was drafted by the Rams in 2013 out of Vanderbilt and spent two seasons in St. Louis. He requested a trade after the Rams drafted Todd Gurley in 2015 and was dealt to the Jets for a seventh-round pick.

Stacy appeared in eight games with the Jets in 2015. He has been out of the NFL since that season and most recently played for the Memphis Express of the now-defunct Alliance of American Football.
