From the earlier arrest:

"Sources say Goodson and a companion were found intoxicated in an SUV along Route 80 in Denville. Authorities have not said why the car was stopped on the highway. Goodson was being taken to a hospital when authorities discovered marijuana in his possession. Officers searching the SUV also found a loaded 45-caliber handgun."

Goodson was signed by the Jets on a three-year, $6.9 million dollar deal. He was suspended for the first four games of the season. He is now out for the season via a torn ACL.
