A former Super Bowl champion with the Kansas City Chiefs was arrested and faces several charges of possessing a stolen car, guns and drugs.

Police in Charlotte, North Carolina conducted a traffic stop Monday afternoon on Bashaud Breeland, a cornerback that has played eight seasons in the NFL. The vehicle, a Mercedes-Benz SUV, was found to be reported stolen from Florida, according to a police report obtained by USA TODAY Sports.

In further investigation into the vehicle, police said it found several guns, including two AK-47s and two AR-15s. Police also found more than five pounds of marijuana and 62 grams suspected illegal mushrooms. The guns were estimated to be worth nearly $4,000, while the marijuana was estimated to be worth $5,000 and the mushrooms worth $2,000, according to the report.

Breeland was arrested and booked into Mecklenburg County Jail early Tuesday morning and was charged with possession of a stolen motor vehicle, altering serial numbers, altering a title, possession of marijuana, possession of a controlled substance and possession of a stolen firearm, according to online jail records. He was released from less than three hours later after posting a $30,000 bond.

A native of Allendale, South Carolina, Breeland played college football at Clemson before he was drafted by Washington in the fourth round of the 2014 NFL Draft. He played for four teams, most notably the two seasons he spent with the Chiefs. He was part of the Super Bowl 54 team, and recorded an interception in Kansas City's 31-20 win over the San Francisco 49ers.

Breeland last played in the NFL with the Minnesota Vikings in 2021. He was with the Arizona Cardinals practice squad this past season, and remains a free agent. In April 2020, he was arrested on multiple charges in South Carolina.
