ESPN on Jamal Anderson: Wait and see
The TV career status of ESPN2 "First Take" NFL analyst Jamal Anderson, the former Atlanta Falcons running back who was arrested early Sunday on felony charges of cocaine and misdemeanor marijuana possession, will probably be determined after the legal system takes its course of action, the network says.
"He is not currently on our schedule to work," said ESPN spokesman Josh Krulewitz. "We will announce a decision closer to next season."
The 36-year-old Anderson, a Woodland Hills native who went to El Camino Real High and Moorpark College, was arrested with another man at the Peachtree Tavern in Atlanta's trendy Buckhead district. Redmond said a second man, whose name was not immediately available, also was arrested. An off-duty officer working in security at the club alerted police that both men allegedly had powder cocaine in their possession, and that Anderson also had a suspected marijuana cigarette in his pocket.
Anderson was released from jail on Sunday night on a $6,000 bond.
