Ziachild007 Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?i...ce=NFLHeadlines San Diego Chargers safety Terrence Kiel was arrested Tuesday on drug-related charges, sources close to the team told ESPN's Chris Mortensen. Kiel was charged with possession, possession for sale and transportation of a controlled substance, sources told ESPN. The sources close to the team said several plain clothes DEA agents appeared at the Chargers' facility Tuesday morning with an arrest warrant, searched his locker and car, and took Kiel away. The Chargers, who are coming off a bye week, were on the practice field at the time. Kiel was booked and released after posting $150,000 bond. Chargers officials were not returning phone calls Tuesday night. Kiel and his agent also could not be reached for comment. Kiel, a fourth-year veteran from Texas A&M, is the starting strong safety for the 2-0 Chargers, who play the 3-0 Ravens on Sunday. Kiel's status for the game is unclear. Drafted in the second round in 2003, Kiel was expected to start that season for the Chargers before he was shot three times in an attempted carjacking in Houston in July of that year. Kiel is making $500,000 this year and has two years left on his contract. This is the second major off-field incident of the season for the Chargers. Linebacker Steve Foley was shot three times Sep. 3 when he confronted an off-duty police officer who had followed his vehicle on suspicion of drunken driving.

scuba chuck Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 (edited) The Book Pros & Cons: The Criminals Who Play in the NFL should do an update after this season. Probably some good reading. Edited September 27, 2006 by scuba chuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
