Cleveland Browns linebacker Armonty Bryant was indicated on two counts of felony drug possession on Wednesday, according to Cleveland 19.
The indictment stems from a Christmas Day traffic stop involving Bryant and former Browns practice squad player De'Ante Saunders. Saunders was going 75 mph in a 60 mph zone. Saunders, it was discovered by police, had a gun in the car. He was immediately charged with improperly handling firearms in a motor vehicle and subsequently released by the team in December.
Bryant, per Cleveland 19, was found to have been in possession of Oxycodone (two pills) and Adderall (one pill). Per Scott Taylor of WOIO TV, Bryant could not provide a valid prescription for either drug.
Bryant just completed his third season in the NFL, and Cleveland, in 2015. He's appeared in 31 NFL games over that time, collecting 63 tackles and 8.5 sacks. He was inactive for the Browns' final two games of 2015.
Bryant could potentially face punishment from the league for violating the personal conduct and/or substance abuse policies. There is an arraignment scheduled for both men on Feb. 24.
