Former football great Mack Herron, who set a record for most all-purpose yards in a season was arrested Friday afternoon in Chicago and appeared in Cook County Court on Saturday after being arrested and charged with heroin possession on Friday. Herron was known as "Mini Mack" when he played for the New England Patriots in the '70s because he was 5-5. In 1974, he set a National Football League record with 2,444 all-purpose yards, beating a 1966 record held by Chicago Bears legend Gale Sayers. Herron has been arrested dozens of times since he left football and has at least seven felony convictions, prosecutors said. Source: The Redzone
