I will never ever understand this. Players in all leagues like to smoke weed, but is it really worth risking your career over?! I know quite a few people that would give their toes to be in that position. Apparently the Texans released 3 rookies because they were caught smoking weed at a hotel. According to other sources though, they were smoking cigars and no drugs were involved.

Via ESPN:
Houston Texans rookies Sam Montgomery, Cierre Wood and Willie Jefferson were released Monday, two days after violating team rules while at the Texans’ team hotel in Kansas City.
Three sources who wished to remain anonymous told ESPN.com that the violation occurred due to marijuana use.
Jefferson’s agent, Chad Cannon, told ESPN.com that the players were smoking a cigar in the team hotel and that illegal drugs were not involved.
“We’re discussing the possibility of filing a grievance,” Cannon said. “I need to be in touch with them and really figure if that’s the best route to take.”
