Tennessee Titans' Kenny Britt surrenders to Nashville cops

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Kenny Britt has surrendered to police on two outstanding warrants alleging that he provided inaccurate information on separate driver's license applications.



Britt was briefly booked into jail in Nashville on Wednesday before posting a $2,000 bond, according to Nashville police. Police spokesman Don Aaron told WKRN-TV that Britt was not at home when officers attempted to serve him on April 14 with the misdemeanor charges issued by the Tennessee Highway Patrol.


Britt also faces a charge of resisting arrest in his home state of New Jersey earlier this month after detectives suspected he was carrying a marijuana cigar at a carwash.

Darnell Dockett tweets while pulled over!

Darnell Dockett was pulled over by police -- and gave Twitter followers a play-by-play account.
The Arizona Cardinals defensive lineman was clearly agitated while posting a series of tweets during the incident Monday. Dockett tweets that police told him he was pulled over because he was speeding, and they wanted to search his car.
"I don't know why the police always messing w/me," he tweeted.
He says he refused to allow police to start a search without a warrant. Dockett eventually tweeted he was about to be let go, and updated his Twitter page a few hours later by saying he did not receive a ticket from police.
It was unclear where the incident occurred, and agent Drew Rosenhaus did not immediately respond to an email requesting comment.
Dockett, who has played seven NFL seasons, frequently uses Twitter and has more than 70,500 followers.

Pat White joins UFL's Destroyers

White signed a minor league baseball contract with the Kansas City Royals after being released by the Dolphins last September. But White did not report to spring training and retired from baseball.

Ben Roethlisberger: May Need Surgery

A broken foot that slowed Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger through much of the end of last season -- and into the playoffs and Super Bowl -- may need an operation to correct the injury.


Roethlisberger, speaking to the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review on Friday, said his right foot bothered him so much last season "there were times during practice and games where I didn't feel like I'd be able to walk."



"I could have had surgery, but according to the doctors it would have been a really nasty process because of where the break was," Roethlisberger said. "It was better off trying not to do anything. It's going to be something where we're just going to have to, in essence, play it by ear.
"If it continues to be as painful as it was at the end of last year, then I'm going to probably have to have the surgery."
