The allegations stem from an incident that happened in Phoenix, Arizona late July between a 27-year-old woman and a 18-month-old baby.

Since then, police investigators have been looking into the incident and seeking out-of-state medical records, according to AZCentral. 

Dwyer previously denied any physical assaults. He has been charged with aggravated assault and preventing someone from calling 911, says CBS Sports.

The Cardinals immediately deactivated Dwyer from this weekend's game.
