Lions star Terrion Arnold is handed NFL lifeline as judge sets $1m bond and allows him to play despite kidnapping and robbery allegations

Detroit Lions cornerback Terrion Arnold has had a bond set in his trial on charges of armed robbery and kidnapping in Florida.

Arnold’s bond was set at $1million as a judge found probable cause for the NFL star to face charges.

The bond had conditions tacked onto it, including Arnold being barred from contacting the six co-defendants or the witness in the case.

He also has been given 48 hours to surrender his passport and has been ordered to be confined to his residence – with the exception of leaving to practice or play for the Lions or attend legal appointments and court-related appearances.

Prosecutors requested Arnold be fitted with an ankle monitor, however his attorneys argued he would be unable to play football with this device on.
