Ahmad Bradshaw in Jail


"ABINGDON, VIRGINIA (TICKER) New York Giants running back Ahmad Bradshaw remains in jail for an undisclosed

probation violation.

Bradshaw, 22, is serving a sentence at the Southwest Virginia Regional Jail.

A spokesman for the jail told PA SportsTicker that said Bradshaw voluntarily checked himself into the facility Sunday. He also said Bradshaw will “serve a certain amount of time.”

Bradshaw was sentenced to two years probation in 2006 for a misdemeanor petty larceny charge while attending Marshall University. He was charged with stealing a PlayStation game from another student.

As a rookie last season, Bradshaw played in 12 games for the Super Bowl champion Giants, rushing for 190 yards and a touchdown on 23 carries."

When I first heard this today I was worried. We all know he has a checkered past. I'm glad after reading this that he is just paying a price for an old incident and that it was nothing new. I hope the kid continues to stay good because the future is bright for the kid in New York.
