Bashaud Breeland Arrest Cop Pulled Gun & Taser On Chiefs Player ... 'Marijuana Enthusiast'

UPDATE

7:23 AM PT -- 4/28 -- TMZ Sports has obtained the arrest report ... and it's shocking.

UPDATE

Cops say the arresting officer used a taser and a firearm to take Breeland into custody as the NFL player allegedly "attempted to flee the scene."

UPDATE

Here's the deal ... a York County Sheriff's deputy claims he saw Breeland and two other men smoking marijuana at a gas station at around 11 AM on Tuesday.

UPDATE

The cop says the men tried to hide the weed when he arrived -- with Breeland repeatedly attempting to leave the scene.

UPDATE

The officer says he initially pulled out a taser and began to issue commands to Breeland to stop resisting -- but Breeland would not comply. So the officer, "drew his issued firearm and issued more lawful commands to Bashaud Breeland who was concealing his hand."

UPDATE

The officer says citizens in the area were begging Breeland to "stop resisting" and ultimately the officer was able to put him in handcuffs.

UPDATE

When backup arrived, officers searched Breeland's car and claim they found a "large marijuana blunt" along with 3.2 grams of weed in the driver door.

UPDATE

Cops say they also found open bottles of beer and tequila in the car.

UPDATE

There's more ... cops say Breeland gave deputies permission to look through his cell phone -- and they allegedly found "several communications about drug transactions."

UPDATE

"Bashaud Breeland had several messages to dealers placing orders of large quantities of marijuana in bags like what was found in his driver's door."

UPDATE

According to the arrest report, Breeland told cops he is a "marijuana enthusiast" who simply likes to smoke ... the insinuation is that he denies being a drug dealer.

UPDATE

Cops also say Breeland "had a large amount of cash on him as well."

UPDATE

Breeland was eventually transported to a nearby police station where he was booked for multiple charges including resisting arrest and possession of weed.

UPDATE

He was released late Tuesday night on $2,362 bond.

UPDATE

8:01 AM PT -- Breeland shared his side of things in a since-deleted tweet late Tuesday night ... claiming it was a set-up.

UPDATE

"I really was at a gas pump got approach by two guys police pulled up they throw something my car as police pulled up which the cop saw," Breeland said.

UPDATE

"I was the one detained wit charges that really shouldn’t be charged."

Kansas City Chiefs star Bashaud Breeland -- who had an interception in Super Bowl LIV -- was just busted for weed possession, open container and resisting arrest, officials confirm.

28-year-old Breeland -- fresh off inking a new, $4.5 million deal to stay with the Chiefs this off-season -- was booked around 1:30 PM on Tuesday in Charlotte, NC.

According to the York County Sheriff's Office, Breeland is facing multiple charges -- resisting arrest, open alcohol container in motor vehicle, alcohol in motor vehicle with seal broken, possession of 28g or less of marijuana, and driving without a license.

The South Carolina native was booked into York County Jail, where he remains in custody, according to records.

Breeland was a 4th-round pick to the Washington Redskins after 3 seasons with Clemson ... playing 4 seasons in D.C. before a brief stint with the Green Bay Packers.

Breeland had a team-high 7 tackles and picked off Jimmy Garoppolo in the Super Bowl ... helping Kansas City win its first Super Bowl since 1969.

We've reached out to the Chiefs for comment ... so far, no word back.

Clyde Edwards
OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS
TMZSports.com

Chiefs 1st-round pick Clyde Edwards-Helaire says he's ECSTATIC to play with Patrick Mahomes in Kansas City ... telling TMZ Sports he thinks the QB is a Hall of Famer!

We spoke with the LSU superstar just days after he was selected with the 32nd overall pick in the NFL draft ... and it didn't take long for him to tell us he's PUMPED over the idea of sharing a backfield with Mahomes.

In fact, Clyde says when he found out Patrick had advised Chiefs brass to pick him before their draft last week ... he became even more enamored with the QB.

"It made me feel like this was the right place to be," Edwards-Helaire says. "This is where God wanted me to be."

"And, ultimately. Man, MVP quarterback, soon to be Hall of Famer -- he's going to be a Hall of Famer, so for him to send my name in and want me to play with him, it made me feel a little special."

Clyde -- who's expected to have a huge role in the Chiefs' offense catching passes from Mahomes in 2020 -- added, "I'm still kind of amazed by the entire situation."

We also asked Clyde what he's spending his first NFL paycheck on ... and he tells us he's looking to buy land -- and his reasoning for why is pretty amazing!!

NFL's Chris Harris Jr. Tyrann Mathieu's Recruiting Me Hard ... He Wants Me In K.C. Badly!!!

Chris Harris Jr
NARROWING IT DOWN
TMZSports.com

Chiefs Kingdom is getting yet another huge assist from the Honey Badger ... 'cause top free agent corner Chris Harris Jr. says Tyrann Mathieu's recruiting him HARD to Kansas City!!

"[He says] just come up there, man," Harris Jr. tells TMZ Sports. "Play with him, be able to do what I've done in the past -- play everywhere on the field, and also play with a great quarterback!"

Harris Jr. appears to be on his way out of Denver after spending the last 9 seasons in Mile High ... and he says he's hearing from a TON of teams interested in bringing him in when free agency kicks off later this month.

Specifically, CHJ tells us, Houston Texans players have been all over him ... and says Mathieu has also been in his ear about playing DB alongside him in K.C.

As for how the pitches are working ... Harris Jr. says he has ZERO inklings right now of where he'll end up next, telling us, "I really don't, bro. I really have no idea."

Harris Jr. says his plan for free agency will be to get his list of teams down to 10 or 5 by the end of this weekend ... and then make a decision on the first day of the new league year on March 18.

"I'm really just looking for the best situation," Harris Jr. says. "Of course, you want a team that's going to pay you and appreciate you, one, and then also how they're going to use me."

So, will Chris end up with the Honey Badger after all? Only roughly 6 days until we find out!

Chiefs' Travis Kelce Can't Wait For White House Visit ... 'Crazy Opportunity!!!'

Travis Kelce
I'll Be There!
TMZSports.com
UPDATE

8:17 AM PT -- Kelce explained his position on Twitter ... saying, "Grew up my whole life watching teams win championships and then go to the White House and get recognized for their greatness."

UPDATE

"Regardless of who is in office I think it’s a unique opportunity to experience our nations Capital."

Travis Kelce says he CAN'T WAIT to celebrate his Super Bowl victory at the White House -- telling TMZ Sports he WILL join his KC Chiefs teammates when they meet President Trump.

"Oh, yeah! Always, man!" Kelce told us in NYC on Wednesday. "Crazy opportunity!"

Not everyone on the team feels the same way ... Chiefs stud defensive end Frank Clark told the Kansas City Star he's got "mixed emotions" about the White House trip.

"I know historically ... that’s something you do as a Super Bowl champion. But we’ll see, man. It’s a lot of mixed emotions about stuff going on there. We’ll see."

Head coach Andy Reid is a firm "yes" -- telling reporters at the Super Bowl, "I mean, I’ll be there. I'll be there. If they’re inviting us, I’ll be there. It’s quite an honor, I think."

Andy Reid
WHAT AN HONOR
NFL

Ditto for Tyreek Hill -- who said, "That would be great to go to the White House. I’ve never been to D.C., so that would be great."

Starting CB Bashaud Breeland just told us a few days ago he's pumped for the celebration as well.

CHILDHOOD DREAM

As for Trump, earlier this month he told reported he's excited to host the Chiefs -- "Every one of them wants to be here. And the coach loves us. The coach is great. Andy Reid."

There's been a ton of controversy surrounding the White House visits over the past few years -- with several high profile players -- and even full teams -- boycotting the tradition.

The Golden State Warriors famously blew off Trump after winning the NBA title in 2017 and 2018 -- instead opting to celebrate with President Obama.

MLB stars like Mookie Betts and Nationals closer Sean Doolittle have also turned down White House invites.

We asked Kelce how the rest of his teammates are feeling about the visit ... but he told us he hasn't had the chance to speak with them yet.

No word on when the team plans to visit -- but the world will definitely be watching when they go.

Dez Bryant Runs Routes For Patrick Mahomes ... Future Chiefs Duo?!?

DREAM TEAM

Is Dez Bryant a future Kansas City Chief?!?!!

Seems like it could be a possibility ... 'cause the former All-Pro wide out ran routes for Patrick Mahomes on Friday -- and there seems to be chemistry there!!!

Of course, Dez hasn't played a down in the NFL since 2017 ... but he's been working like a mad man to get back, even telling TMZ Sports this month he's "for damn sure" returning to the league soon.

Dez Bryant
I'M COMEBACK READY
TMZSports.com

And, we gotta say ... in the clips of Dez and Mahomes, the former Dallas Cowboy superstar still looks like he has hit!!

Check out how he high points the ball and turns upfield in one of the clips ... sure looks a lot like 2014, right???

It's unclear why the Super Bowl MVP decided to link up with Dez for the workout ... but Mahomes is from the Tyler, Texas area -- so it coulda been just two elite athletes getting some run in.

Then again, maybe Andy Reid put his quarterback up to it to report back to Chiefs kingdom?!?!

Seems Dez certainly hopes so!

Mahomes, Kelce & Chiefs The Party Continues in Vegas

CAN'T STOP, WON'T STOP
TMZSports.com

Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs are still celebrating their Super Bowl win ... damn near 7 days after beating the 49ers in Miami.

Patty, Travis Kelce and a bunch of the guys from the team were down in Sin City over the weekend -- where they kept the party going in at last two different clubs on the strip. On Friday, the Chiefs players were at JEWEL Nightclub at the ARIA resort and casino.

Looks like they were the center of attention, and were in good company too. Girls were doing shoulder rides and waving around Chiefs signs and flags. Some of the other players who came out ... Damien Williams, Mecole Hardman, Blake Bell, Cam Erving and Austin Reiter.

On Saturday, the boys in red bounced on over to OMNIA Nightclub at Caesars Palace, where a Steve Aoki concert was being held. We got some footage from inside ... looks like the fellas were vibing and feeling themselves.

That's sorta been the temperature all week for them. It feels like they've been non-stop partying since last Sunday -- be it in K.C. itself or in Miami. Viva la victory.

Post Malone Parties with Chiefs at K.C. Concert ... Kelce & Mahomes Rage At Nightclub After!!!

POST-GAME PARTY
UPDATE

1:49 PM PT -- TMZ Sports has learned the party didn't end at the Post concert ... in fact, it raged on for HOURS afterward at a local nightclub!!!

UPDATE
Chiefs 2/5/20
PARTY LIKE CHAMPIONS
UPDATE

Actor Paul Rudd was also hanging with the guys ... although you can tell the week's worth of partying after the Super Bowl was wearing on him a bit.

UPDATE

One clubgoer told us the Chiefs were at the venue until AT LEAST 1:30 AM.

UPDATE

What a time!!!

Patrick Mahomes and even Paul Rudd firing up clubgoers

It's good to be the CHAMPS ... just ask Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce and the rest of the Chiefs who all got the super-VIP treatment at the Post Malone concert.

Post -- a HUGE football fan -- invited the Super Bowl champs to his Kansas City show at the Sprint Center on Wednesday where the QB, TE and others players got a special roped-off section all to themselves.

And get this ... Malone -- a hardcore Dallas Cowboys fan -- even paid tribute to the Chiefs by rocking a Mahomes jersey on stage! You can see in the clip, Patrick LOVED it!

Before the show, Post invited the guys and their gals backstage for a private dance party and some beer pong action!!

The most impressive part ... the Chiefs had been drinking HARD since like 10 AM on Wednesday because of the Super Bowl parade in K.C. Mahomes and Kelce were pounding beers on the parade bus like it was water!!!

So, to keep it up for more than 12 straight hours ... man, that's good stuff.

Hopefully they can beat a hangover like they beat those 49ers!!

Chiefs' Byron Pringle Gunning For Pringles Deal ... After Super Bowl Win

LET'S MAKE A DEAL
TMZSports.com

Chiefs WR Byron Pringle says now that he's a Super Bowl champ, he's the PERFECT candidate to be a rep for Pringles ... and he wants the chip co. to reach out to him ASAP!!

"Once you pop, you're never going to stop. You know?" Pringle tells TMZ Sports.

Of course, 26-year-old Byron's been angling for this sponsorship for YEARS ... he says dating back to high school, teammates and friends have constantly told him he NEEDS to be a rep for the canned chips because of his last name.

And, now that he's about to add some title bling to his finger ... he says he's ready to get into serious talks.

Pringle tells us his demands in the deal are pretty simple ... "some commercials" and "life-long Pringles chips, any flavor" are high on his list.

But, he also says vending machines at his former schools that dispense free Pringles to students would be a sweet add-in as well.

As for his pitch to Pringles and what he'd bring to the company moving forward ... he says he's got star potential on the gridiron.

"Every time I'm in, I'm always making a play," Byron says. "Doing my assignment in the play, for the play."

By the way, we had Byron rank the best flavors of Pringles ... and Sour Cream & Onion was shockingly not his #1!!!

Patrick Mahomes Stopped SB Parade For Pee Break ... High Fived Fans After!!!

POTTY BREAK

STOP THE PARADE .... Patrick Mahomes has to pee!!!!

The Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl parade came to a screeching halt on Wednesday so the MVP could take an MVPee.

Check out the footage of the special security task force assigned to cover Mahomes at all times ... even during his potty break. PROTECT MAHOMES AT ALL TIMES!!

After the leak, Mahomes raced out of the porta-potty and high fived a bunch of the fans lined up along the parade route ... hoping, praying, guessing he washed his hands first!

Mahomes and the Chiefs have been raging their faces off all morning -- boozing like the champs they are. People are throwing beers at the players and the players pounding 'em ... despite the freezing cold temps!

Andy Reid I'll Go To White House For SB Party ... 'It's Quite An Honor'

Andy Reid says he's FOR SURE going to Donald Trump's White House to celebrate the Chiefs' Super Bowl win ... calling the trip "quite an honor."

The head coach was asked about the possible visit after KC's 31-20 win over the 49ers ... and Reid didn't mince words expressing his desire to make the trip with his team.

"I mean, I'll be there," Reid said. "If they're inviting us, I'll be there. It's quite an honor."

Andy Reid
WHAT AN HONOR
NFL

Of course, it's unclear how many members of Reid's team will make the visit with him ... White House celebrations for championships have become polarizing, to say the least.

Star players throughout various sports teams have skipped out on the invite over the past 3 years ... with SEVERAL key players from previous Super Bowls missing the trip.

In fact, whole teams like the Golden State Warriors and Toronto Raptors have bypassed the visit altogether.

But others, like the LSU Tigers football team just a few weeks ago, have made the visit and have raved about it.

Seems Reid sure would like his squad to go ... although individual Chiefs players have yet to comment publicly with their intentions.

Peyton Manning and Antonio Brown were huge fans of the way Patrick Mahomes played on Sunday -- praising the QB on the way out of the game and we've got the video.

Manning was all smiles on the way out of Hard Rock Stadium while surrounded by several tough-lookin' police officers ... and told us Mahomes was "awesome."

He was also positive about 49ers QB Jimmy Garoppolo -- insisting we haven't seen the last of Jimmy G at the Super Bowl.

Antonio Brown was stoked about the game too ... we got him leaving Hard Rock Stadium in a sick Lamborghini ... and he talked about possibly playing with the Chiefs next season.

Antonio Brown
WHOLE LOTTA ASPIRATIONS

"I would love to go to the Chiefs," Brown told us ... "I'd love to play with Mahomes."

As for where Mahomes ranks on the NFL's top QB list -- "Behind Tom Brady, he's really up there!"

As we previously reported, Brown recently issued apologies to everyone he's wronged over the past few months ... from the Hollywood Police Dept. to the mother of his children.

Brown is obviously hoping to get a second chance in the NFL -- we'll see if he gets his wish.

Patrick Mahomes Goes Crazy For Andy Reid On Team Bus ... After Chiefs Dance Party!!!

BREAKIN' IT DOWN

THIS IS AWESOME!!!

The Chiefs lost their minds celebrating their Super Bowl win Sunday night ... with a locker room dance party and a team bus celebration for Andy Reid -- and the video of it all is amazing.

Ya gotta watch the clips of Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce on the team bus ... 'cause when coach Reid showed off the new Lombardi Trophy to the guys -- they lost their minds!!

Of course, it was all preceded by an amazing locker room celebration after Kansas City came back from being down 20-10, to beat the 49ers 31-20.

The scene was incredible ... there was a mosh pit dance circle ... star defensive lineman Chris Jones cutting a rug in the locker room -- and guys partying HARD!!

But, one of the best parts of the postgame? On the team bus to the nightclub celebration ... the dudes gave a hilarious rendition of "We Are The Champions!"

The party continued at the club ... where Mahomes was serenaded by hundreds of people chanting "M-V-P!"

The Chiefs ended up at LIV ... with Mahomes, Tyreek Hill, Mecole Hardman, and more raged with celebs like Kanye West, Odell Beckham and Floyd Mayweather in attendance.

If that's not big enough ... Lil Wayne even performed some of his biggest songs. So yeah ... it was a rager.

Tamba Hali Reid Will Be Top 5 Coach All-Time ... With Chiefs Win Sunday

Tamba hali
FUN TIMES
TMZSports.com

Forget the Hall of Fame ... Andy Reid will go down as a top 5 coach EVER with a win in the Super Bowl on Sunday -- so says his former player Tamba Hali.

"Getting this win obviously will make him one of the greatest coaches of all time," Hali says.

Think it's crazy??? The Chiefs legend might not be wrong ... Reid is already 6th all-time in regular-season wins with 210 -- and he's been to SEVEN conference title games as well.

But, the knock on Reid has always been he's never won a Super Bowl ... and if he's able to erase that against the 49ers, Hali says put him on the NFL's coaching Mt. Rushmore ASAP.

"I know the guys that came before him did some great things, but at least top five in all-time coaching," Hali says.

We also spoke with Hali about his ex-teammate Patrick Mahomes ... and the former KC pass rusher LOVES the guy.

In fact, ya gotta hear the amazing story he shared with us about an afternoon that the QB spent with his son.

Seriously, listen to the story and watch this video ... it's all adorable!!!

TIME TO SHINE
TMZSports.com

Patrick Mahomes is getting a Super Bowl assist from Brett Favre ... who tells TMZ Sports he's already hooking up the Chiefs superstar QB with Big Game week advice!!!

"I sent Patrick a message last night," Favre says.

So, what's the Packers legend's memo? Brett tells us it's simple -- ENJOY THE WEEK!!!

Favre -- a former SB MVP -- tells us he ain't offering X's and O's advice or anything like that (yet), but he is giving Mahomes some tips on how to forever remember his first title game.

"Enjoy yourself," Favre said he told the KC QB. "Soak it in!"

Favre says while the message might seem cliche and short ... he says it's actually necessary -- telling us a lot of dudes NEVER make it back to the title game and regret not enjoying the week more.

Favre, though, says he's betting Mahomes will have plenty more Super Bowl trips in his future ... telling us the 24-year-old is set to "rewrite" the NFL's record books!

Brett also talked to us about his faith in Jimmy Garoppolo heading into Super Sunday ... and he says a game against the Saints earlier this year showed him everything he needed to see to be a believer in the guy.

Super Bowl LIV Porn Site Offers Cams to Players ... Security Purposes Only!!!

Patrick Mahomes, Jimmy Garoppolo and all the other players preparing for Super Bowl 54 can stay focused on the game, instead of worrying about home burglaries ... thanks to a live-sex porn site.

Yeah, you read that right. CamSoda is offering free HD webcams to the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers players to set up inside their homes during Super Bowl week. The offer isn't a gateway to porn ... it's a security measure to ward off potential thieves.

CamSoda's thought is once the cams are installed, players can live stream the feed from their homes 24/7 to monitor their property while they're out of town -- or have friends or family monitor the situation.

The company's VP, Darren Parker, says ... "The last thing members of the Chiefs and 49ers should have to worry about while preparing for, and competing in, the Super Bowl is making sure their residences are secure."

Parker cites the break-ins at the homes of Rob Gronkowski -- during the Super Bowl in 2018 -- and Yasiel Puig when the Dodgers were in the 2017 World Series. He says Travis Kelce and George Kittle don't need to worry about falling victim too.

The offer doesn't require accepting players to "perform" on their webcams -- but ya gotta think CamSoda wouldn't turn 'em down if they were interested.
