NEW YORK (AP) — The NFL suspended Houston Texans minority owner Javier Loya indefinitely and fined him $500,000 for violating the personal conduct policy, concluding the league’s investigation into charges of rape and sexual abuse that were dropped under a plea agreement.

Loya faced a charge of first-degree rape and six sexual assault charges in Kentucky in 2023. A year later, he accepted a charge of “harassment with intent to annoy” in exchange for the other charges being dropped. The charges stemmed from two parties Loya hosted in Louisville, Kentucky, according to the Houston Chronicle.
