The most publicized catch of the 2011 season involving Jerome Simpson and a front flip, may be the last we see of four year veteran for some time. (video below)
Thursday, the Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver was indicted on one count of trafficking marijuana in excess of eight ounces. It it evident that his body was not the only thing Simpson was 'flipping'.
On September 19, 2.5 pounds of marijuana were confiscated from his home. Another six pounds were found inside the home upon further investigation.
Authorities were alerted when a suspicious package was detected at a Sacramento California shipping center. From there authorities were alerted and began tracking the package to its final destination which was eventually Simpson's Kentucky home.
This season Simpson emerged as the Bengals second receiver hauling in 50 catches for 725 yards and four TD's.
If found guilty, Simpson could face one to five years in prison.
