Bradenton, FL-Former Alabama cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick will not be prosecuted on a marijuana possession charge says a spokesperson for the state attorney's office for Bradenton, Florida.
Kirkpatrick, a potential top-10 NFL draft pick, was arrested Jan. 17 with possessing less than 20 grams of cannabis.
A police report said Kirkpatrick was a passenger in a truck driven by another former Alabama player, Chris Rogers, who told police he purchased the marijuana at a house and was charged with a drug offense.
Kirkpatrick told officers he was in the car when the drugs were purchased but didn't realize at the time what was being bought, the report said.
