Kenny Britt sought by police for questioning over brother’s stabbing
Kenny Britt is being sought by New Jersey police for questioning regarding an incident that led to his brother being stabbed Saturday night, The Tennessean reports.
According to Jim Wyatt of The Tennessean, the Titans wide receiver dropped off his brother at a hospital Sunday morning but was uncooperative with police. Police believe Britt was at the scene where his brother was stabbed.
The stab wound reportedly is on his brother’s back by his left arm and not considered a life-threatening injury.
According to The Tennessean, police were called to a party in Jersey City at 3:28 a.m. because of a reported stabbing that occurred during a fight. When police arrived, they found nothing wrong. They were later informed that Britt brought his brother into the hospital with a stab wound, leading them to believe Britt was involved. Police also say a gun shot rang out from the same place where the stabbing took place. The shot reportedly was fired after Britt went back to the house to pick up his girlfriend.
“They were all involved in an altercation. So they all knew each other and what was going on,’’ Jersey City Police Capt. Edgar Martinez told The Tennessean. “That’s why we want to talk to him. He was involved in the incident, both incidents. He was there during that time period. So we are looking to speak to him.”
Britt shared a photo of his brother on his Instagram account Sunday:
He added the following caption: “Ride for my brother cry for my brother loyalty and honor I will die for my brother.”
Britt had 43 catches for 568 yards and four touchdowns in 13 games this season as he came back from ACL surgery. He has been involved in numerous issues since entering the league.
- – Involved in bar incident in 2010
– Leads police on car chase, charged with drug possession in 2011

It’s amazing he’s lasted in the league as long as he has.
