    Tampa Bay Buccaneers cornerback Aqib Talib is described as a "person of interest" in a March 21 shooting in Garland, Texas, Richie Whitt of the Dallas Observer reports. According to the report, Talib allegedly attempted to pistol-whip his sister's boyfriend, and then used his mother's gun to fire two shots that the boyfriend, who was attempting to flee the area. "The investigation is ongoing," Garland Police Department administration supervisor Captain Patrick McCulley said. "But I can confirm that Mr. Talib is a person of interest in the case." Talib could face charges up to aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, a second degree felony. A first-round pick (20th overall) out of Kansas in 2008, Talib has started 28 of his 41 career games, totaling 127 tackles and 15 interceptions and earning 2010 NFL Defensive Back of the Year honors from the NFL Alumni Association. Talib has also found his fair share of trouble of the field, beginning with a fight with Cory Boyd at the NFL Rookie Symposium in 2008, and an arrest for assaulting a cab driver in Tampa during 2009 training camp, which resulted in a one-game suspension at the start of the 2010 season.

    You know, with the lockout it seems like more NFL players are resorting to breaking the law. By the time Roger gets players in camp there may not be an NFL left.
