NFL star Xavien Howard is being accused of negligently giving a woman an incurable sexually transmitted disease in an explosive new lawsuit, RadarOnline.com has learned.

The woman — identified as Jane Doe in the docs — claims she met the Miami Dolphins cornerback in February 2018, stating she ensured they had safe sex by asking to see his negative test results.

The filing submitted in the 17th Judicial Circuit Court in Broward County, Florida, alleges that Howard contracted genital herpes sometime the following year and failed to tell Doe.

"With knowledge of his incurable sexually transmitted disease, and without disclosure, Defendant Howard continued to engage in unprotected sex with Plaintiff without informing her of same," the docs read.

Doe claims she tested positive for the STD in March 2021, alleging that Howard was the "only individual who could have transmitted" it to her.

Earlier this year, the athlete signed a massive contract with $50.691 million in new money that provided him an average-per-year salary of $25.345 million for the next two years, NFL Network's Mike Garafolo, Tom Pelissero, and Cameron Wolfe reported.

Considering that Howard had $39.30 million and three years left on his previous deal, that meant he was now under contract for five years and $90 million, Pelissero added.
