Sep 5, 2018 | 11:43 AM
Former Saskatchewan Roughrider Justin Cox has pleaded guilty to a charge of assault causing bodily harm.
Cox’s trial was due to begin Wednesday morning but he entered a guilty plea at the beginning.
He was dropped from the team in April 2017 after being charged with assault in connection with a domestic dispute. Those charges were later dropped.
Cox was arrested again in September 2017 on charges of assault.
He will return to court for sentencing at a later date.
