Terrion Arnold is, indeed, drawing interest from multiple NFL teams despite facing multiple felony charges.
Arnold worked out for the Houston Texas on Thursday and took a physical for them, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. He is scheduled to visit with two more teams next week.

Arnold drawing NFL interest right now is something of a surprise. He is facing felony kidnapping and armed robbery charges in Florida after allegedly planning out a robbery in an effort to recover hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of stolen goods that purportedly been stolen from an Airbnb that he was renting (full details here). The cornerback has denied the allegations and pleaded not guilty to the charges. If convicted, he faces life in prison.
Despite his denials, the Detroit Lions chose to release Arnold at the end of June, even though he had received permission to practice with the team.
As serious as the charges against Arnold are, he was a first-round pick just two years ago and showed some early promise in the NFL. The Texans apparently think he could contribute despite the serious charges against him, though it remains to be seen if they or anyone else actually move to sign him.
