An assistant coach for Louisville football has reportedly had his charge of theft of property dropped in Hamilton County, Tennessee, according to the Times Free Press.

Cortney Braswell, an offensive quality control coach on Scott Satterfield's staff confirmed the report to the Courier Journal.

Braswell was originally arrested by St. Matthews Police on June 22 and charged with theft of property and extradited to the Hamilton County Jail in Chattanooga, Tennessee. He was then put on administrative leave, but has returned to the coaching staff and was at practice on Wednesday.

"I am grateful that the University of Louisville’s Athletics Administration was willing to be patient while all the facts came to light despite the negativity surrounding this story," Braswell said in a statement to the Courier Journal. "I am grateful to the numerous friends, coaches, parents, students, and community members who wrote letters of support on my behalf and stood behind me. In this case, the justice system worked as it was intended to, and I am glad that the truth prevailed. ... I am extremely thankful to Head Coach, Scott Satterfield, Director of Athletics, Vince Tyra, and the entire U of L Athletics Administration and football coaching staff for their continued support of me throughout this ordeal. I look forward to continuing my work with Cardinal Football."
