Bashaud Breeland has some serious explaining to do.
The Kansas City Chiefs cornerback found himself arrested on multiple charges Tuesday that included having alcohol with a broken seal in a motor vehicle, having an open container of alcohol in a motor vehicle, driving without a license, possession of marijuana and resisting arrest.
On Wednesday morning, Breeland took to Twitter and fired back at all the reports about him in a since-deleted tweet that claimed two random men approached him and actually threw something into his car.
“Lot of people wanna speculate On my situation and don’t know the facts I really was at a gas pump got approach by two guys police pulled up they throw something my car as police pulled up which the cop saw and I was the one detained wit charges that really shouldn’t be charged”
TMZ Sports would later add to the story with more information.
“Cops say the arresting officer used a taser and a firearm to take Breeland into custody as the NFL player allegedly “attempted to flee the scene.”
Here’s the deal … a York County Sheriff’s deputy claims he saw Breeland and two other men smoking marijuana at a gas station at around 11 AM on Tuesday.
The cop says the men tried to hide the weed when he arrived — with Breeland repeatedly attempting to leave the scene.
The officer says he initially pulled out a taser and began to issue commands to Breeland to stop resisting — but Breeland would not comply. So the officer, “drew his issued firearm and issued more lawful commands to Bashaud Breeland who was concealing his hand.”
The officer says citizens in the area were begging Breeland to “stop resisting” and ultimately the officer was able to put him in handcuffs.
When backup arrived, officers searched Breeland’s car and claim they found a “large marijuana blunt” along with 3.2 grams of weed in the driver door.”

Breeland didn’t make matters any better when he allowed officers to look through his cell phone.
“There’s more … cops say Breeland gave deputies permission to look through his cell phone — and they allegedly found “several communications about drug transactions.”
“Bashaud Breeland had several messages to dealers placing orders of large quantities of marijuana in bags like what was found in his driver’s door.”
According to the arrest report, Breeland told cops he is a “marijuana enthusiast” who simply likes to smoke … the insinuation is that he denies being a drug dealer.”
The Kansas City Chiefs star, who had an interception in Super Bowl LIV, will likely be punished by the NFL for his actions.
