Cleveland Browns left tackle Jedrick Wills Jr. and wide receiver Rashard Higgins were both cited for drag racing earlier this week.
On Wednesday, TMZ Sports released dash cam video of both of them getting cited for drag racing, but also catching a huge break for having weed.
In the video below, you can see a Westlake PD responding officer ask the 26-year-old about his car smelling like weed and eventually finding a joint in Higgins’ pocket. One of the cops stated the weed bust could be “bad for press” so he ordered him to crush the joint with his foot and kick it into the sewer.
“You guys are celebrities around here, so you don’t want that hittin’ the news, OK?” the officer said.
On Tuesday evening, Higgins posted on Twitter that his “foot slipped,” in regard to the drag racing citation, before deleting the tweet. He also posted he “was tryna get away from Covid,” before deleting that tweet, as well.
