When I first heard the story about Brandon Merriweather, it sounded rather bizarre. He is accused of being involved in a shooting a couple of weeks ago in Florida. All of a sudden, the news is coming out from the two victims who claim they were shot by Merriweather during an altercation at a party.
Merriweather is not stranger to controversy from his college days in Florida. The Pats took a chance on his questionable background, drafting him in the first round in 2007.
Law enforcement officials have not considered him a suspect, which makes this all the more puzzling.
I'm sure the teams is keeping a close eye on this as it evolves. If he is arrested for the shooting, I predict that the team will release him. Owner Robert Kraft has been quick to release players who bring dishonor to the team by their personal behavior.
Merriweather may soon join a growing list of NFL players who have seen their careers derailed by fooling around with guns and engaging in reckless behavior.
