A Canadian Football League (CFL) player was arrested in California after federal agents caught him with nearly 150 pounds (67 kg) of Ecstasy tablets, the Vancouver Sun reported Thursday.

Yonus Davis, 26, who played as a rookie last season with the CFL’s British Columbia Lions, faces one count of possessing a controlled substance with intent to distribute.

The team issued a press release Wednesday confirming Davis’ arrest, but provided no details on the case.

According to the report, Davis was arraigned April 13 and returned to federal court in San Jose, Calif., six days later for a detention hearing. The charge carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison and a $1 million fine.

Davis, who played in college at San Jose State, was arrested April 9 by DEA agents posing as FedEx workers when he accepted a package containing the Ecstasy pills, according to court documents obtained by the paper.

A search of Davis’ BMW 745i turned up about $7,000 in cash, the report stated.

Davis was named the most outstanding special teams player in the CFL’s West Division last season.
