NEW YORK (AP) – Jets star wide receiver Braylon Edwards will be active for New York’s next game Sunday night at Miami despite being arrested for drunken driving, general manager Mike Tannenbaum tells The Associated Press.
Tannenbaum says Tuesday night that Edwards won’t start, and how much he plays against the Dolphins will be up to Jets coach Rex Ryan.
Tannenbaum added that Edwards’ arrest falls under the NFL’s substance abuse policy, and “any discipline that occurs will be from the league under that program.”
Edwards was arraigned on drunken-driving charges after a breath test showed Edwards had a blood-alcohol level twice the legal limit after he was stopped on Manhattan’s West Side around 5 a.m. Tuesday, prosecutors said.
