According to a report by the Miami Herald, Browns receiver Donte’ Stallworth tested positive for marijuana after fatally killing pedestrian Mario Reyes with his car.
Stallworth, 28, is serving one month in jail after pleading guilty last month to DUI manslaughter.
Miami-Dade prosecutors say his blood alcohol level was .126, well above the legal limit, when his Bentley hit and killed Mario Reyes, 59, on the morning of March 14.Stallworth’s test results, which have yet to be released, showed traces of marijuana, according to sources with knowledge of the results.
In 2007, the Philadelphia Inquirer reported that Stallworth was in the NFL’s substance abuse program for an unspecified reason.
Stallworth has already struck a deal with the Reyes family, so this means nothing in terms of his legal situation. However, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell has already suspended Stallworth indefinitely and surely a positive drug test would surely extend his suspension even longer.
I guess Jim Brown was right when he said that he had “heard” Stallworth had marijuana in his system when he was arrested. That crazy Jim Brown – he knows everything.
