    Wow he retired to become a minister... to do this: http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/blog/sh...len-Coffee-arrested-for-having?urn=nfl-275674

    When former San Francisco 49ers running back Glen Coffee(notes) retired from the NFL this summer at the age of 23, he said it was because God told him to leave football and enter the ministry. He didn't mention whether or not he was supposed to accept his higher calling while carrying an automatic pistol.

    Coffee was arrested in Florida on Friday morning for carrying a concealed firearm, according to TMZ. Police found the weapon cocked in his center console during a traffic stop.

    The former NFL player had been pulled over for speeding in his 2008 Cadillac and was soon discovered to be driving a car without insurance or registration. When police searched the car before it was to be towed, they found the loaded weapon.

    Police arrested Coffee and charged him with a third-degree felony, which is punishable in Florida by up to five years in jail. The arrest came in Coffee's hometown of Ft. Walton Beach.

    In his rookie season with the 49ers, Coffee ran the ball 83 times for 226 yards and one touchdown. He was a third-round pick out of Alabama, where he made first-team All-SEC in his junior season.

    I thought you were supposed to go to jail and THEN find Jesus.

    Amen to that brother! Seems he is a little confused as to how to do things first he quits football before really getting paid, then he finds jesus before his incarceration.

    Sounds like this guy is fucking crazy if anything. He gives up an NFL career to be a minister but packs heat with him? What a fucking idiot...

    Maybe he only left the NFL due to a fear of Mike Singletary

    Granted, there are a number of reasons to carry firearms and I'm not being judgmental...but:

    Now that he's been arrested, he's ready to be back in the NFL.

    He wanted to be a prison minister, and what better way than actually goto prison and spend all your time there.

    Can't blame him for wanting out of the 49er mess.

    He should have said that God told him to demand a trade and after playing a few years and making enough money to retire, then start preaching.
