Antonio Pierce You Are The Worse Coach I Ever Met’ Star Player Disparaging The Las Vegas Raiders head coach Antonio Pierce….
Las Vegas Raiders head coach Antonio Pierce got himself in a bit of hot water with his recent comments about Kansas City Chiefs superstar quarterback Patrick Mahomes. Pierce revealed that he had a special tactic against the reigning two-time Super Bowl MVP, which involves a bit of violence from his own defensive line.
As it turns out, renowned NFL analyst Skip Bayless is a big fan of Pierce’s polarizing proclamation.
On Monday, a former highly touted Las Vegas Raiders cornerback made the news for a recent run-in with the law. Per NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, 2020 first-round pick Damon Arnette was arrested and charged last month for “possession of less than a gram of meth and unlawful carrying of a firearm.” The arrest occurred at 3:30 am in Richardson, Texas.
Monday’s report of Arnette’s arrest is not the first time the former Ohio State Buckeyes product has had legal issues. Arnette’s legal problems began in 2021 when he became a suspect in a hit-and-run revolving around an accident the year prior. A video surfaced the same year of Arnette making death threats while brandishing a weapon on social media. The Las Vegas Raiders cut him shortly after, ending his brief two-year stint with the franchise.
A cautionary tale: Ex-#Raiders first-round pick CB Damon Arnette was arrested on Jan. 6 at 3:30 am and charged with possession of less than a gram of meth and unlawful carrying of a firearm, per me and @HollowayNFLN. The previously unreported arrest was in Richardson, TX.
In 2022, the Texas native was arrested for “charges of assault with a deadly weapon, carrying a concealed weapon without a permit, and two counts of possession of controlled substances.” Arnette entered a plea deal, avoiding incarceration, but had to pay a $2,000 fine and complete 50 hours of community service. He was again arrested later that year and charged with “possession of a controlled substance, possession of drug paraphernalia, and driving on a suspended license.”
Las Vegas Raiders: Little Production from Damon Arnette
Arnette played only two seasons with the Raiders before his legal issues and eventual release. The former second-team Big Ten cornerback posted 25 tackles, one TFL, and two passes defended in nine games as a rookie. He appeared in four games the following season, posting four tackles and a PBU. The Raiders released him that same year. He landed with the Miami Dolphins shortly after but never made the active roster. He signed a reserve/future contract with the Kansas City Chiefs in 2022, which lasted only a week.
Arnette played collegiately at Ohio State, tallying five interceptions in four years. He also accumulated 140 tackles, 22 passes defended, two forced fumbles, and a fumble recovery during his tenure with the Buckeyes.
