The 38-year-old former Jets quarterback, who started working for Fox as an analyst in 2021, was charged following an alleged altercation with a 69-year-old truck driver in early October.

While visiting downtown Indianapolis to cover the Colts game that weekend, Sanchez was allegedly involved a fight with Perry Tole in an alley. Both men sustained serious injuries and were hospitalized as a result.

Video of the incident shows the driver stepping backward as the former quarterback moved toward him.

The Indy Star reports that Sanchez approached Tole’s truck and started talking to the driver in the alley before the incident.

Per the outlet, police said, “Sanchez is seen running after [the man] and the video shows Mr. Sanchez grabbing and throwing [the man] towards the wall of the Westin [hotel].”

According to court documents, the truck driver said he feared for his life and stabbed Sanchez in self-defense.

The former NFL star is now facing charges of battery resulting in serious bodily injury, public intoxication that endangers the life of another and unauthorized entry of a motor vehicle.

He faces several years in prison if convicted.

Although Sanchez has not publicly spoken about the incident, his family released a statement saying, “Mark and our family are incredibly grateful for the concern, love and support we’ve received” and that he’s “focused on his recovery as the legal process continues.”
