Ex-Broncos WR Brendan Langley was charged by Port Authority.

 

Former NFL wide receiver Brendan Langley was charged for allegedly getting into a brawl at Newark airport with a United Airlines employee last week.

 

In a video posted online, the footage shows the United employee shove a passenger, identified as ex-Denver Broncos receiver Langley.

 

It appears the airline worker throws the first punch, before Langley hits him back and then throws a series of punches.

 

The United employee hits Langley again, prompting the former NFL player to ask a woman standing nearby: “You saw that sh**?”

 

He then punches the employee in the face, sending him crashing behind the check-in counter.

 

Though apparently bloodied, the worker gets back up and charges the pro-athlete who can be heard yelling, “Oh, you want some more?”

 

According to reports, Langley, who most recently played for the Calgary Stampeders in Canada, was the only one arrested in the incident.

 

The United employee was reportedly taken to the hospital to be treated for a wound to his eye. He was reportedly fired by the airline.

 

The altercation was allegedly over Langley using a wheelchair to transport his luggage instead of a paid-for luggage cart.

 

In a statement for the carrier, a spokesman said only: “United Airlines does not tolerate violence of any kind at our airports or on board our planes and we are working with local authorities to further investigate this matter.”
