A misdemeanor domestic battery charge against Merritt was dismissed last month by the District Court of Johnson County (Kansas).
Merritt was charged in April after he was accused of causing bodily harm to his daughter. He had pleaded not guilty.
Merritt spent several years playing linebacker in the NFL before becoming one of the best defensive backs coaches in the league. He has been with the Chiefs since 2019, and, including his time with the New York Giants, has helped teams win five Super Bowls.
