Unwanted by the NFL for years, quarterback Ryan Leaf soon will find a home.
In jail.
Indicted on May 20 for nine counts relating to drugs and burglary, the second overall pick in the 1998 draft remains at large.
“At one point he said he was going to turn himself in,” Randall County prosecutor Lacy Miller told the San Diego Union-Tribune. “He hasn’t turned himself in yet, and if he gets picked up he’s going to be arrested. If he gets picked up out of our jurisdiction, then we will extradite him or use whatever means we have to get him back. Right now he is a wanted individual.”
Leaf allegedly broke into an apartment in Canyon, Texas on October 30 and stole an unknown amount of Hydrocodone pills. Leaf also allegedly took a West Texas A&M player’s Hydrocodone pills and replaced them with fakes.
Leaf had been working as an assistant coach at West Texas A&M. He was placed on leave after allegedly asking a player for a pain pill.
