PITTSBURGH (AP) -- Pittsburgh Steelers running backs Le'Veon Bell and LeGarrette Blount will be charged with marijuana possession following a traffic stop Wednesday afternoon.

Ross Township detective Brian Kohlhepp said traffic officer Sean Stafiej pulled over a Camaro operated by Bell around 1:30 p.m. after Stafiej, who was on a motorcycle, noticed a strong odor of marijuana coming from the vehicle.

Stafiej found a 20 gram bag of marijuana inside the car. Bell, Blount and a female passenger all claimed ownership of the marijuana according to police.

Bell, 22, was taken to a hospital to have blood drawn and is expected to be charged with driving under the influence of marijuana.

Bell, Blount and the female passenger were arrested and released. All three are expected to receive notice of formal charges through the mail said Kohlhepp. The possession and DUI charges are both misdemeanors.

The Steelers play a preseason game in Philadelphia on Thursday. Bell and Blount, signed as a free agent in the offseason, were expected to see significant playing time in the main tuneup for starters before Pittsburgh's Sept. 7 opener against Cleveland.

A team spokesman did not immediately return a phone call from The Associated Press.

Bell set a franchise record for total yards by a rookie running back last season, smashing the mark set by Hall of Famer Franco Harris.

The second-round pick out of Michigan State ran for 860 yards and eight touchdowns and caught 45 passes for 399 yards despite missing the first three games of the season with a foot injury.

Pittsburgh plans to use Bell and Blount as a one-two punch, with the burly 27-year-old Blount expected to be featured heavily in short-yardage situations. The Steelers finished tied for 27th in the league with 1,383 yards rushing in 2013 on their way to an 8-8 record.

what do ya know? 2 black guys busted for weed

[jacklambert58]

4 game fine and/or 1 game suspension - not too bad.
The worst is now being subjected to continued testing, but they should be dropping marijuana off the banned list with the new hgh agreement, so all in all not a big deal.

[wickedman]

Damn, they are lucky, pretty sure that's a large enough amount for intent to distribute in some places. ****ers must be getting high a **** ton.

[Doober4]

I swear these cops must not be sports fans. If I was the cop I would tell them to give me the weed and the number of the hooker they were with then get the fuk out of here.

Why not blame it on the girl and then just give her some money? Any suspension/fine is gonna be more than it'd take to pay her off

[Bucher15]

Ravens or Bengals in the north, nothing has changed.

Dwayne Bowe already got just 1 game suspension for weed. They prob won't get suspended and/or fined until next season though.

[turk75]

Should have just punched the female passenger when they got caught.. will probably get a lesser fine/suspension.

They won't suspend them that quickly...there are guys who still haven't gotten their suspension results from **** done months ago.

Blount living by his name.

Teams should start employing people to hang out with players and take the fall for petty stuff like this. For season tickets and 70k a year I'd rack up a ton of possession charges or claim that I KO'd Ray Rice's wife in an elevator.

Idiotic or not it is still a law and is against NFL policy. Pretty moronic to put yourself in this situation.

Why would Aaron Hernandez kill his get out of jail free card?

[Doober4]

Why would Aaron Hernandez kill his get out of jail free card?

Because he's a psychopath, we are talking about a guy that shot someone in the face for spilling his drink at a club.

[FlashWad3]

Haven't been following the Hernandez case but what did he actually shoot those guys for?


Blount and Bell......holy backfield batman

You're going to need to be more specific. Hernandez shot a lot of different people for a lot of different reasons.

[916Crew]

watch they get more than 2 games lol

[jacklambert58]

update: Blount was not charged & was just released free to go. He made the team plane for tomorrow's game.

doesn't look like Godell can touch Blount.
