Los Angeles Rams Defensive Lineman Ethan Westbrooks Arrested On Five Felony Charges
Blue Lives Matter

Bakersfield, CA - Los Angeles Rams defensive lineman Ethan Westbrooks, age 26, was arrested on Friday night, September 22.

The incident occurred on Interstate 5 near Bakersfield, according to MSN. Police said that Westbrooks was stopped for speeding, and officers observed a handgun in the glove compartment of his vehicle while he was looking for his registration, according to ESPN.  ...

Westbrooks was arrested on five felony charges: receiving stolen property, carrying a loaded firearm, carrying a stolen loaded firearm, grand theft of a firearm, and possessing a high-capacity magazine.   ...

He said that he had talked to Rams Coach Sean McVay on Monday and was told that the team would support him.   ...

The Rams "support" a guy like this, but the Steelers threw Army veteran Al Villanueva under the bus. Strange times in the NFL, for sure. I haven't been able to find what happened at Westbrooks' arraignment or whether charges have been dismissed.

The Rams "support" a guy like this, but the Steelers threw Army veteran Al Villanueva under the bus. Strange times in the NFL, for sure. I haven't been able to find what happened at Westbrooks' arraignment or whether charges have been dismissed.

IMO, this is merely "...innocent until proven guilty".

He'll claim he received personal threats on his life, etc..

(How many sacks does he have?    /s)
