July 7, 2009
Though the accident that left one Mario Reyes dead occurred nearly four months ago, more details continue to unfold.
Per the Associated Press, Donte Stallworth was with teammate Braylon Edwards the day and evening before Stallworth’s accident that killed a pedestrian on a Miami, Florida causeway.
While the latest set of details lists the amount of money that was spent by each player (over $3,000 for Edwards, approximately $500 for Stallworth), I think the most important part is the fact that Edwards actually had a room at the hotel where the two players had been drinking.
“We’re friends. If he were anything outside himself, I would have told him to stay here. He looked OK. He looked fine.”
Hindsight is always 20/20, but things could have been very different had either player decided that they should both stay in Edwards’ room. Instead of being suspended indefinitely, Stallworth could actually be attempting to bounce back from what is widely considered to be a sub-par 2008 season.

Clearly revenge for the heel stepping incident.
/toosoon?
Exactly, because if a friend comes over and has 4-5 beers you don’t make him sleep on the couch.
the accident took place in the morning, even if he had stayed in the hotel with edwards…he probably would have woken up and drove around the same time.
Woken up at 7a on a Saturday in the offseason?
man i totally forgot about the heal thing.
I wonder if Braylon had the shell or the bud. Maybe Donte had 5 on it.
“He looked OK. He looked fine.” Coming from the same guy who couldn’t see a football heading right at him.
@TampaBrett LOL!!!!!
[…] different angle on the Braylon/Stallworth details from yesterday: “I find the Red Bull purchase highly entertaining. As many readers of […]
I wish the Browns would cut Stallworth already so we could stop hearing about this story.
i always drive home after pounding $4,000 worth of booze
Non-story to me….He is a grown man. Braylon spent more, drank more, and likely was in no condition to give any type of sobriety test. Stallworth is a grown man and now must live with it like any of us would. Well, he has the money to pay the settlement unlike us, but still….
I also agree with Prince, if he was going to drive at 7 AM, he’d have done it anyhow…unless that is when he left the hotel.
