NFL star Xavien Howard ‘sent revenge porn photos and videos to his victim’s own SON because she refused to have an abortion,’ lawsuit claims
Former Miami Dolphins cornerback Xavien Howard allegedly sent sexually explicit images of an ex-girlfriend to her teenage son in a failed attempt to pressure the woman into having an abortion, according to a court filing obtained by DailyMail.com .
The document was filed anonymously on Thursday in Broward County, Florida by the woman’s son, who was a minor at the time he allegedly received his mother’s explicit images from Howard.
Lawyers for 30-year-old Howard did not respond to DailyMail.com’s request for comment. The four-time Pro Bowl selection was waived by the Dolphins in March to free up $18 million in cap room for the upcoming season.
John Doe’s attorneys, Cam Justice and Adriana Alcalde, are asking their client for permission to sue Howard in Broward County as part of his mother’s ongoing lawsuit. The NFL free agent’s attorneys have repeatedly tried and failed to dismiss the case and have accused Jane Doe of seeking a multi-million dollar payout.
Jane Doe’s ongoing lawsuit accuses Howard of making sexually explicit videos of her and sharing them with multiple other people. But her son’s filing Thursday alleges that Howard “went on the warpath” against Jane Doe after he tried and failed to pressure her to terminate a pregnancy. Seeking revenge, Howard sent Jane Doe’s explicit images to her son, resulting in “significant emotional distress” for John Doe, who is now over 18.

The alleged dispute began in September 2022 when Jane Doe learned via Instagram that she was the victim of a revenge porn plot.
“On or about September 25, 2022, Jane Doe received an Instagram message from a
a woman from a third party, who claimed she was in possession of several sexually explicit videos
Defendant texted her that he was having sex with several women,” according to the Thursday filing obtained by DailyMail.com. “This third party woman told Jane Doe that she believed Jane Doe was one of the women in the sexually explicit videos. Jane Doe sent the outside woman her cell number and asked her to send the videos so she could see them.”
“The multiple text messages depict the sexually explicit videos that Defendant distributed to the wife of a third party, who then forwarded them to Jane Doe,” the filing continues. “Several of the videos are of Jane Doe and directly identify her. Jane Doe’s videos show hard, full sexual intercourse with Howard and are terribly devastating to her.”
Doe sent Howard a cease and desist order in 2022, accusing him of sharing revenge porn
Howard is accused of sending “sexually explicit material from mother to her minor son, John Doe, on or about September 19, 2022.”
Although Jane Doe deleted the images from her son’s phone, he later saw them on his iCloud account.
Jane Doe sent Howard a cease and desist order in October 2022.
Howard has faced a number of lawsuits in Broward County for everything from paternity to domestic violence and sexual assault. He was also accused in 2023 of knowingly giving a woman a sexually transmitted disease, although his lawyer in that case insists the accusation is “trumped up.”
The Houston native played at Baylor from 2012 through 2015 before being selected in the second round in the 2026 NFL Draft.
Since then, he has led the NFL in interceptions twice.
