Shane Ray cited for possession of marijuana

40

Per the report, "1) POSSESSION OF 35 GRAMS OR LESS OF MARIJUANA 2) FAIL TO DRIVE IN THE RIGHT LANE OF THE HIGHWAY WITH TWO OR MORE LANES"

According to David Morrison, "Ray was clocked speeding around mile marker 109 on I70 W at around 5:46 am, according to the highway patrol." and "Ray was released on a summons, has a June 30 court date in Cooper County. He was issued a warning for speeding."

The arrest could enter him into Stage 1 of the NFL's substance-abuse program. A subsequent violation would push him into Stage 2, at which point the league could suspend him for four games in addition to a fine.

UPDATE: Shane Ray released a statement:

"I’d like to apologize to my Mother, Fans and prospective NFL teams for my poor judgement Monday morning . I am embarrassed and realize there are consequences for my actions. I was not under the influence nor impaired , therefore I was not detained. Fortunately, Mondays incident only resulted in a citation. I will make better choices in the future. It is imperative that I continue to strive to better myself. My future NFL career has been something I have always dreamed about and is very important to me. I commit that my actions will represent that. There are no excuses here and I will take the necessary steps to ensure this will not happen again. I will not jeopardize my ability to have a positive impact on and off the field moving forward."
