At that meeting, Hurd told the informant that he wanted to buy "five to 10 kilograms of cocaine and 1,000 pounds of marijuana per week for distribution in the Chicago area," according to the complaint.

I believe his playing days are over.

The guy signed a three-year contract with a maximum value of $5.15 million, and received a $1.35 million signing bonus.

What in the world is he doing trying to deal drugs...?

Hurd allegedly negotiated to pay $25,000 per kilogram for the cocaine and $450 per pound for the marijuana. The complaint says that Hurd "further stated that he and another co-conspirator currently distribute four kilograms of cocaine per week in the Chicago area, but that the supplier could not supply him with enough quantity."

Sounds like a man that has been in the dealing game for quite a while.  Obviously a terrible life decision especially condiering what he had at stake, but depending on how deep in he was, along with a nice bank account to draw from, he was probably making more "on the side" then he was playing football.  A payday like that is hard to give up, especially if he had long-time friends involved who were depending on that income.  Just a sad way to end a still young career...

Wow, what an idiot. He definitely sounds like he's been dealing for quite some time.

That hustler and "flip-it" mentality is a killer. People are never satisfied with what they have.
