GM Ryan Poles speaks on the Byron Pringle's arrest
Back on March 20th, new general manager Ryan Poles signed unrestricted free agent Byron Pringle, a receiver that was beginning to make a name for himself in Kansas City. Pringle signed a one-year deal worth $4 million which could become $6 million with added incentives.
On April 24th, just over a month after being signed, Pringle has been arrested for reckless driving on a suspended license.
Let me remind you that GM Ryan Poles worked with Pringle for several years with the Chiefs.
Here is what Poles said on the subject of the arrest today:
Pringle, 28, was seen doing "donuts" with his sports car in Pasco County, Florida. The bad thing about the incident is that Pringle's child was in the car with him, according to the report. When authorities ran his driver's license, they found it was suspended. Furthermore, he allegedly became confrontational during the stop with the police officer. The report stated that another adult male was in the car, although that other male has yet to be identified. Pringle was taken to the Pasco County jail Saturday evening where he, reportedly spent the night or at least a good part of it.
It is important to note that this is not Byron Pringle's first criminal trouble. In 2019, he was arrested and faced 7 felony charges in accusations of car burglaries, armed robbery and firing a BB gun at pedestrians. We get that Ryan Poles was covering for his guy but this is such a bad look still...
