Eagles linebacker Nigel Bradham was arrested for allegedly assaulting a hotel employee in Miami, according to NBC Miami.

Bradham allegedly punched the victim in the face, breaking his nose, after Bradham became upset with how long it was taking the employee to set up an umbrella he and his group paid for. The victim also had a glass bottle smashed over the back of his head, according to a police report. 

The incident occurred on July 21 at the Hilton Bentley Hotel in South Beach. 

Bradham played college football for Florida State and lives in Miami during the off-season.

Bradham, 26, was signed as a free agent this off-season after four seasons with the Bills and is expected to be a starter at linebacker. 

Eagles players report to training camp on Wednesday, but NJ.com reports it is unclear whether Bradham will be among them.
