Mike Goodson: News and Notes

May 17 RB Mike Goodson was arrested for drug possession and gun charges, according to News 12 in New Jersey. According to the report, Goodson and a companion were found intoxicated in an SUV that was stopped along Route 80 in Denville. Goodson was being taken to a hospital when authorities discovered marijuana in his possession and then found a loaded 45-caliber handgun while searching the vehicle. Multiple reports, citing New Jersey State Police, indicate the ammunition with the weapon was hollow point bullets. Goodson signed a three-year, $6.9 million contract as an unrestricted free agent. He played last season with the Oakland Raiders, who acquired Goodson from the Carolina Panthers prior to 2012.

May 17 Goodson has been arrested and charged with possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia and unlawful possession of a loaded gun, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports.

Recommendation: Goodson was a passenger in a vehicle whose driver was charged with a DUI and possession of a handgun. This isn't exactly going to help Goodson's chances of earning the Jets' No. 1 RB spot.
