The Cincinnati Bengals linebacker Rey Maualuga may say goodbye to his rookie season by busily dealing with charges of drunken and careless driving. The Bengals' 2009 second-round draft pick from USC was held for about seven hours at the Kenton County jail before being released on his own recognizance.
Hitting a parking meter and two parked cars early Friday with his 2003 Pontiac, the 23-year-old player has pleaded not guilty to the charge. Although the damage he made was minor, should not he recognize what a stupid thing he has done? That’s little about penalty, but it really has something to do with his sense of responsibility. Even if he is a genius in football able to keep his starting job for the first 15 games of his first season playing pro football in NFL jersey, there is not a reason at all for him to ignore security of others’ properties.
Bengals’ team spokesman Jack Brennan refused to comment on the case, saying that the team will wait until the case is resolved. And court records show he entered a plea and was ordered to return next month for a hearing.
