From TMZ Sports:
Two NFL players -- including a 2019 1st round draft pick -- have been accused of of armed robbery and arrest warrants have been issued, TMZ Sports has learned.
Law enforcement confirms NY Giants cornerback DeAndre Baker (the 30th overall pick in 2019) is facing 4 charges of armed robbery and 4 charges of aggravated assault with a firearm.
Seattle Seahawks corner Quinton Dunbar is facing 4 counts of armed robbery.
According to police, the two men were partying in Miramar, FL. on May 13th ... when things took a disturbing turn.
Cops say Baker and Dunbar were allegedly hanging at a cookout -- playing cards and video games -- when an argument broke out and Baker whipped out a semi-automatic firearm.
Cops say the men began to rob party guests ... with Dunbar assisting in taking watches and other valuables at the direction of Baker.
At one point, cops say Baker directed a 3rd man -- who was wearing a red mask -- to shoot someone who had just walked into the party ... but fortunately, no one was actually shot.
Law enforcement says the men made out with more than $7,000 in cash -- along with several valuable watches including an $18,000 Rolex watch, a $25,000 Hublot and a pricey Audemars Piguet timepiece.
Is it wrong that I am finding joy in these 2 punks going down?
I can't imagine either of these 2 playing another down in the NFL. Dunbar was in negotiations with Seattle on a new contract. Baker was a bust, was was making good money.Not at all, I'd feel this way had one of them not been a former Redskins. Their demise simply opens a job for someone else.
Another case of the Seattle Seahawks knowing how to find thugs.
I blame Baker cause he's a dwag. Dunbar was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. Dunbar was a Meyer boy, so you know he doesn't commit crimes.
I hate saying it, but it's shit like this that keeps racial stereotypes alive and well in the US. It's horrible that people will use this to paint a broad stroke over all black athletes, but for fucks sake, what in the hell are these guys thinking?
Surely someone got video of this happening.
It is what it is. I rarely see stories about police officers helping communities either. Usually just the bad stuff.So just another 2 idiots who are pissing away a free education and wealth beyond their wildest childhood dreams. Sadly, this news story will go viral and paint a negative picture that every critic can jump on. Meanwhile, all the other pro athletes who continue to be positive role models and do great work in their communities go largely unnoticed because it doesn't sell.
