We have a new update on Mark Sanchez following his arrest in a stabbing incident.
Last month, the 38-year-old former NFL player was allegedly the aggressor in a violent incident that happened, leading to his arrest while in the hospital. While in Indianapolis, he allegedly assaulted a 69-year-old delivery driver while in an alley by a bar and then the man stabbed him in response. The fight reportedly broke out over a parking spot.
