Bengals receiver's mysterious absence from season finale came days after alleged assault: report

Jermaine Burton did not travel with the Cincinnati Bengals over the weekend, and there now appears to be a reason why.

The Cincinnati Enquirer says it made a public records request to local police after the coaching staff decided Burton would not join the team for Saturday's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

The request yielded two reports and a recording of a 911 call made by a woman who claimed Burton assaulted her the morning of Dec. 30, three days before the game.
