Police reportedly received a call about a suspicious person exhibiting erratic behavior. Officers discovered Graham wandering the streets in a Los Angeles location that was not identified. Police attempted to arrest Graham, who allegedly resisted.
Graham was arrested for suspicion of being under the influence of a controlled substance and resisting, delaying, and obstructing a police officer. Both charges are misdemeanors. Graham signed a one-year deal with the Saints on July 25, returning to the team that originally selected him in the third round of the 2010 draft. Graham played for the Saints for five seasons from 2010 to 2014, then was traded to the Seattle Seahawks. He also played for the Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears. He did not play in the NFL last season.
The Saints are in California in preparation for Sunday’s preseason game and have been conducting joint practices with the Chargers at the Jack Hammett Sports Complex in Costa Mesa, California. Graham was a full participant in Friday morning’s practice as normal and spoke to local reporters afterward.
