It’s been nearly 30 days since a current NFL player has been arrested, an impressive offseason development. Earlier today, a former NFL player found himself on the wrong side of the police-car glass.

Via PalmBeachPost.com, former Buccaneers and Giants receiver Preston Parker has been arrested for felony cocaine possession, the display of a weapon during the commission of a felony, and destruction of evidence.

Undrafted in 2010, Parker spent time with the Bucs, Saints, and Giants. He was cut last September due to a chronic inability to catch the football.

During his career, Parker caught the ball 85 times for 1,054 yards and five touchdowns.
