Fort Lauderdale, FL (September 13, 2012) -- Six-time Pro Bowl receiver Chad Johnson has been formally charged with one count of misdemeanor domestic battery. The Broward State Attorney's Office filed the charge Wednesday. Johnson faces up to a year in county jail. Johnson was arrested last month after his wife accused him of head-butting her during an argument in front of their home. He was later freed on $2,500 bond. The confrontation came barely a month after Johnson married Evelyn Lozada, who is on the reality TV show "Basketball Wives." The 34-year-old Johnson had been battling for a spot on the Miami Dolphins after a disappointing season with the New England Patriots in 2011. The Dolphins released Johnson a day after his arrest. Johnson is scheduled to be arraigned Thursday morning and to file a written plea of not guilty.
