New York Jets wide receiver Robby Anderson has found himself in trouble with the law once again, and it sounds like he is going to need a good attorney to get out of it.
Daniel Popper of the New York Daily News reports that Anderson was arrested on nine charges early Friday morning in South Florida. ESPN’s Rich Cimini provided more information about the specific charges.

Details surrounding Anderson’s latest arrest are unclear, but we know that the 24-year-old was also arrested at a music festival last May after he allegedly got into a physical altercation with an officer.
Anderson, an undrafted free agent out of Temple, had a breakout season with the Jets in 2017, hauling in 63 catches for 941 yards and seven touchdowns.
