Texans minority owner Javier Loya, a Houston businessman, is currently facing serious charges in Kentucky. Loya has been accused of one count of first-degree rape, five counts of first-degree sexual abuse, and one count of third-degree sexual abuse. The charges were filed in Jefferson County and an arrest warrant was issued on May 10. Loya’s case is scheduled for a pretrial conference on August 22.
The Houston Texans, upon learning about the charges against Loya, released a statement affirming their awareness of the situation. They acknowledged Loya as one of their outside limited partners and disclosed that he has agreed to withdraw completely from any team or league activities while the charges are pending.
The NFL was promptly informed about the allegations by the Texans and subsequently removed Loya from all committee positions. A league spokesperson confirmed that Loya is prohibited from participating in any league or club activities during the ongoing legal process.
