At the time, Regina police said they had received calls from a hospital about a woman who said she had been physically assaulted by Cox, and from an employee at a business who alleged that Cox pointed a gun at her.

Cox must return to court in December to face a charge of assault with a weapon.

He was let go from the Roughriders in April 2017 after he was arrested for assault related to an alleged domestic dispute, but he was found not guilty.

However, then-commissioner Jeffrey Orridge said the CFL would not allow any other team in the league to sign him.
