Naughty naughty, NFL! - Defense

In continuing my latest post, here are the NFL bad boys of defense.  Before I get started I would like to share some of my research.  Wide receiver is the position with the most arrests, while offensive center has the least.  I don’t know why this is, but I will speculate that offensive center is a position that requires a lot of intelligence.  Could there be some correlation? 

Linebacker (3):

Ray Lewis (Ravens), Terrell Suggs (Ravens), Akeem Jordan (Eagles)

(Sorry, I couldn’t post his mugshot - couldn’t do that to my man)

Cornerback (2):

Adam “Pac-Man” Bernard Jones (Bengals), Charles Woodson (Packers)

Defensive End (2):

Raheem Brock (Seahawks), Jerry Hughes (Colts)

Tackle (2):

Fili Moala (Colts), Tony McDaniel (Dolphins)

Credit: www.palmbeachpost.comBest arrest: Tony McDaniel was arrested and charged with domestic violence after a public fight with his girlfriend.  She says he started it and threw her to the ground.  He says she started it, and she fell as a result of his attempts to defend himself.  Sounds like a lot of he-said she-said to me, but it doesn’t help that he also smashed her cell phone while a friend called the police.  I don’t support men hitting women, but if she attacked him then he definitely had a right to defend himself. 

Safety (2):

Tyrell Johnson (Vikings), Lawyer Milloy (Seahawks)

Credit: www.graneyandthepig.comBest arrest: So many drunk driving arrests!  The only interesting part of Lawyer Milloy’s arrest is that it occurred less than 12 hours after he played a losing game.  Even NFL players turn to alcohol in times of despair.
