Cedric Cobbs, a former NFL and Arkansas Razorbacks running back, has been charged with promoting prostitution early Friday morning in Little Rock, Ark. According to the arrest report, Cobbs drove a woman to a hotel where she arranged to “have sex for money” with a person. This person the woman made arrangements with actually turned out to be an undercover cop. Cobbs was reportedly arrested in the parking lot.
Police also reportedly found a methamphetamine pipe in the vehicle Cobbs used, as well as a second pipe and prescription pills along with meth in a woman’s handbag. A total of nine people, including Cobbs, were arrested for prostitution-related charges between late Thursday or early Friday evening by the Pulaski County sheriff’s office. This isn’t Cobbs’ first run in with the law: Last October, he was indicted in federal court for being accused of dealing prescription pain medications. He was also arrested in 2013 for trying to buy pills with a fake prescription, and fled police when they tried to stop him.
Cobbs played for Arkansas from 1999 to 2003. He played for the New England Patriots in 2004-05, and then later with the Denver Broncos in 2005-06.
