Feb 29, 2016 7:44 PM

Jaelen Strong was arrested on a marijuana charge over the weekend in Scottsdale.

Strong was riding in a black Maserati when police observed that there was no visible license plate and conducted a traffic stop.

According to the report, when officers made contact with Randall they detected a strong marijuana odor "coming from the inside of the vehicle."

"All of the occupants were questioned about the odor, if they had marijuana in their possession, and if they had a medical marijuana card," according to the police synopsis. "Strong admitted that he was possession of some marijuana and advised that he did not have a medical marijuana card."

The Houston Texans later released this statement:

"The Houston Texans are aware of the incident regarding WR Jaelen Strong in Scottsdale, Ariz. We are disappointed in the choices Jaelen made to put himself in this situation. We will have no further comment at this time."

Arian Foster Watches 'Zero Football' As Fan

Feb 14, 2016 5:59 PM

Arian Foster will be 30 years old before next season as injuries have continued to accumulate.

Foster says he doesn't enjoy watching football from the perspective of a fan.

"I watch zero football. I swear," Foster told actor and sports fan Michael Rapoport on the I Am Rapaport podcast (via the Houston Chronicle). "Of course, I used to be a super fan growing up. Once you see the business side, you see it differently. I'm pondering entering the last couple, 3-4 years of my career and I'm thinking about what life will be like after football and I'm looking at the game differently. I look at it more like, 'I hope these guys come out healthy because they've got families.' It's not just entertainment to me any more. I see the men and the humans behind it. It's a vantage point that not a lot of people get to see. I still do enjoy the game. I love it, but it's just hard for me to watch it from a fan perspective."
