Free agent DB Dexter Reid was arrested on gun and drug charges Sunday after being pulled over on suspicion of drunken driving

Reid won a Super Bowl ring in New England and Indianapolis, but he's a marginal player this could keep him out of the NFL for good.

REID BUSTED ON GUN, POT CHARGES

Free-agent cornerback Dexter Reid, who played for the Colts in Super Bowl XLI, was arrested Sunday on charges of gun possession and marijuana possession, according to the Virginian-Pilot and other media outlets. The weapons charge is a misdemeanor, and the drug charge is a felony.

Reid was stopped Sunday on suspicion of DUI. Police then found a handgun and marijuana in his vehicle.

He told police that he is unemployed, which technically is true. The Colts cut him after the 2006 season ended. And as soon as he is employed again by an NFL team, said franchise will earn 10 points in Turd Watch -- if the charges are still pending at the time he inks a contract.

The former North Carolina product spent 2004 with the Patriots and 2005 with the Colts. He was cut by Indy during the 2006 season, but later re-signed with the team.

I could see the big bad NFL making an example of a Dexter Reid. After all,he's marginal as stated above. God forbid they had the guts to do it to a all-pro. The world works funny that way.

The way he backstabbed the Patriots with badmouthing the team once he was gone,he could rot in a cell for all I care..He sucks anyway..Who cares?

Whoever said I did care. I do agree with one thing, he sucks.

Heard he's changing his name to 'Dexter Weed'

The more disgusting thing about Reid is the fact he is sporting 2 rings! It is sad to know this deadbeat hack of a football player got a pair of them when there were many greats (football AND character) that never did.

Marginal late-Sunday/UDFA prospect, horrible draft choice. To think that we could've had RBs Mewelde Moore or Michael Turner, or WRs Ernest Wilford or DJ Hackett. The 2004 draft is one of the reasons why our young, quality depth at LB and DB is shyte.

Both will be on Ebay in a few years.

Bank on it.

What amazes me as much as how many laws NFL players seem to break, is how often routine traffic stops or stops for "suspicion of..." hunches that don't pan out turn into full searches that turn up things like a bag of weed and an illegally concealed weapon.

Why are the gun charges the misdemeanor and the pot a felony?
