FORT LAUDERDALE (CBSMiami) – The Miami Dolphins have had to deal with their fair share of headaches this offseason and now, they can add a player being arrested to the mix.

Outside linebacker Koa Misi was arrested without incident at his home in Weston by the Broward Sheriff's Office.

The former Utah Ute is wanted for battery with serious injury in California.

Misi, who is 6'3", 251 pounds, has played two seasons with the Dolphins after being drafted in the second round of the NFL Draft.

Misi played in 28 games over the past two seasons and started 20 of them. For his career, he has 55 tackles, 5.5 sacks, and 3 passes defensed.

Depending on the defense the Dolphins run this year, Misi was slated to either play a standup outside linebacker position or with his hand on the ground as a defensive end.
