Kansas City Chiefs defensive back Bashaud Breeland was reportedly arrested in South Carolina on Tuesday on two alcohol-related driving charges and possession of less than an ounce of marijuana.
Breeland was also charged with driving without a license and resisting arrest, the Post and Courier reported.
Breeland, a starter for the Chiefs last season who tallied an interception in the Super Bowl, took to Twitter early on Wednesday to address the situation, and appeared to suggest he was mistakenly arrested by police officers while they were involved in an unrelated pursuit:
The Chiefs said they were aware of the situation but had no comment, ESPN reported.
Breeland, 29, is a native of Allendale, S.C., and played collegiality at Clemson. The former Packer and Redskin re-signed with the Chiefs on a one-year deal this offseason after winning the Super Bowl in his first year in Kansas City. Breeland owns 12 career picks and three touchdowns, including two pick-sixes.
