No, we don't want him.
The Bucs have just released receiver David Boston. According to a Bucs news release, the Bucs reached an injury settlement with him. In addition, Tampa Bay has resigned receiver Mark Jones.
Pinellas Park police recently said the receiver was under the influence of the date-rape drug GHB when he was found asleep at the wheel of his sport utility vehicle last month. Toxicology reports revealed that Boston had 870 micrograms per milliliter of GHB in his urine when he was arrested and charged with a misdemeanor DUI on Aug. 23.
Boston intially told police that laboratory analysts would find no illegal substances in his urine. He also issued a statement proclaiming his innocence in the matter after the results came back.
Bucs general manager Bruce Allen, who on Aug. 25 issued an emphatic statement saying the team had investigated the charges against Boston and had found no “objective evidence to support” them, issued another statement this Monday.
“We are taking the allegations in [Monday’s] report released by the Pinellas Park Police Department very seriously and we will continue to review all information as it becomes available,” Allen said. “We will reserve further comment until all the facts surrounding the investigation are complete.”
Allen is going to speak with the media today at 12:30 p.m.
