Nick Saban Writes Letter to Judge Vouching for Terrion Arnold's Character
On Monday, the Detroit Lions released starting cornerback Terrion Arnold following his arrest last week on four counts of kidnapping and four counts of armed robbery.
Police claim Arnold served as the primary conspirator in a February incident where associates allegedly kidnapped and pistol-whipped three innocent men seeking revenge for a robbery in Florida.
Judge Christopher Sabella set Arnold's bond at $1 million with strict stipulations, while former Alabama head coach Nick Saban submitted one of "around 11" character reference letters to the court.
Detroit's decision creates an immediate opening in the secondary, positioning veteran Tre'Davious White as a potential replacement to compete for the starting cornerback job.
Although recovering from previous injuries, White demonstrated last season he can still compete at a high level, making 16 starts as an injury replacement for the Bills.
