Former Panthers Captain Munnerlyn was arrested at Miami International Airport on Friday after attempting to catch a flight to Cancun, Mexico per Andy Slater of Fox Sports Radio.
Munnerlyn is ready to return to the NFL but hasn’t thought about retirement since his charge for writing bad checks.
CBS Sports Patrik Walker reported “At one point early in his career, Munnerlyn was known as one of the best defensive players in the NFL because of his ability to make teams pay for their mistakes, going on to sign a three-year deal with the Minnesota Vikings in 2014 free agency. He’d play out that contract before then returning to the Panthers in 2017 on a four-year deal, but was released two years into that contract. That was followed by a short stay with the Buffalo Bills in 2019, where Munnerlyn couldn’t gain traction with the young Bills, leading to his release not long after signing that August. “
A formal statement was issued by Munnerlyn’s attorney Ricky Patel to counter-attack the charges he thought was a mistake.
“And we will clear this situation immediately,” Patel told Slater.
Who knows if Munnerlyn will have a shot at signing with a team if this charge doesn’t take him down for good?
