Former 49ers linebacker Dan Skuta reportedly got himself into some trouble recently.

Skuta was arrested in Orlando on June 19 on misdemeanor battery charges, according to multiple reports.

According to the police report, Skuta approached a woman "and began talking to her and flirting with her. When Skuta asked for [the woman's] phone number [and] she told him, 'No,' a verbal altercation ensued."

Skuta allegedly pushed the woman's face, which resulted in her hitting the back of her head against a glass window.

Jacksonville released the following statement:

“The Jaguars are aware of the situation involving linebacker Dan Skuta and are currently gathering more information. The team has been in constant communication with Dan through this process in its entirety. No further comment can be made at this time.”

Skuta played for the 49ers in 2013 and 2014, starting 18 games.

He appeared in 13 contests (eight starts) for the Jaguars last year.
