  • The Jets running back was arrested at 3:15 a.m. when New Jersey State Police said they found him and another man passed out in their vehicle on Route 80 West in Denville, N.J., and intoxicated with a handgun in the glove compartment. Goodson was indicted in November on two charges — second-degree unlawful possession of a handgun and fourth-degree possession of a hollow point bullet — and rejected a plea deal last month.

  • Back when the current Panthers linebacker was with the Giants, he was arrested at Philadelphia International Airport when a TSA officer discovered a switchblade inside his luggage. As of early August, Connor was on track for a pretrial diversion program that would expunge the arrest if he stays out of trouble.

  • In a bizarre case, the Jets tight end was arrested after a woman allegedly saw him masturbating in the parking lot of a Target in East Hanover, N.J., although the charge stemming from the incident is possession of synthetic marijuana. Winslow’s publicist, Denise White, released a statement via Twitter in January that said the player was changing his clothes in his car so “as to not smell like smoke when he returned home.”
