Sperm Edwards Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Because there wasn't much else to discuss around here with the slow NFL news this past week... http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/12873903/braylon-edwards-former-nfl-receiver-arrested-arizona SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- Former Cleveland Browns and New York Jets receiver Braylon Edwards has been accused of driving while under the influence of alcohol. Police Officer Kevin Watts says the 32-year-old Edwards was released after being arrested May 4 in Scottsdale, Arizona, on suspicion of four misdemeanor counts of driving under the influence. According to Watts, police records indicate an officer pulled over Edwards' vehicle at about 3 a.m. because it didn't have its lights on. Watts says results of a blood-alcohol test aren't yet available and that prosecutors will decide later which of the DUI counts to press against Edwards. Edwards' case does not yet appear in online court records, and Watts says police records do not list an attorney for Edwards. Edwards' pro career included stints with the Browns, Jets, San Francisco 49ers and Seattle Seahawks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joewilly12 Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Sad news for such a great player that really helped the Jets reach the AFC Championship in 2009-2010. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe W. Namath Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 He had all the talent but never lived up to the hype. Maybe alcohol played a role in why he never became a great player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Il Mostro Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Per police records, the 32-year-old former first-round draft pick had a blood-alcohol level exceeding .20, which is more than twice the legal limit and is considered "Extreme DUI." Braylon has clearly mastered his craft. Still a #1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sperm Edwards Posted May 13, 2015 Author Share Posted May 13, 2015 dumbass. lucky he didn't kill anybody driving with his lights off Drunk with his lights off. The mugshot: Earned over $30M in his playing days and couldn't be bothered to call a freaking $20 cab. Like you said, lucky he didn't kill anyone. He belongs in jail.

jmat321 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Strange career. Must have been the alcohol that took him down, not the knee or the gay rumors. You would think that he would have gotten a nice contract from somebody after 2010. Was shocked there wasn't a bidding war for him after Tanny said no thanks.

Sperm Edwards Posted May 13, 2015 Author Share Posted May 13, 2015 Id be surprised if he had more than 2-3 million left.... Perhaps. But it's plenty enough to call a cab instead of endangering the lives of anyone on or near the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cedric88 Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Yeah I agree he could have hired a cab and it would have saved his career. I have seen alcohol being the sole reason behind ruining careers of so many athletes who had tremendous potential when I worked with a DUI attorney Los Angeles. I feel same is his case too!
