Chad Kelly arrested, 'mumbling incoherently'

Denver Broncos

Denver Broncos backup quarterback Chad Kelly, a Western New York native and nephew to Buffalo Bills Hall of Fame quarterback Jim Kelly, has been arrested on suspicion of criminal trespass.

According to the Englewood Police Department, the younger Kelly was taken in custody early Tuesday.

According to court records, a man and woman told police a man came into their home uninvited after 1 a.m. Tuesday and sat down on the couch "mumbling incoherently.'' The records say the man chased the intruder out, striking him in the back with a vacuum tube.

Police say they found a man nearby matching the intruder's description and identified him as Kelly, who is 24. Court officials say Kelly posted $2,500 bond and is due back in court Wednesday.
