Lions CB Aaron Berry arrested again days before opening of training camp

The Lions are becoming a punch line because of the stupidity of a few players during the offseason.

Cornerback Aaron Berry doubled down this weekend.

He was arrested on three counts of simple assault according to ProFootballTalk.com. A firearm was used in the incident. This is Berry’s second arrest. He was charged with suspicion of drunk driving in June. Both occurrences were in Harrisburg, Pa.

Again, what was he thinking?

After his arrest last month, Berry should have been on his best behavior. Now he faces possible suspension from the league.

Berry had a solid offseason and was projected to be a starting cornerback.

His two arrests bring the total to seven for the Lions this offseason. Nick Fairley twice — for marijuana possession and drunk driving; Mikel Leshoure twice for marijuana possession and Johnny Culbreath for marijuana possession.

It also came to light this week that Corey Williams was arrested for drunk driving 13 months ago during the NFL lockout.

On Monday rookies and injured players report for training camp. The rest of the players report on Thursday with the first session of training camp set for Friday.
