Adam Gase talks release of Leon Orr following arrest
The Miami Dolphins waived on Wednesday defensive tackle Leon Orr as soon as they heard about his Tuesday night arrest for possession of marijuana and possession of a controlled substance. Orr had been pulled over while travelling on I-75 as he approached a toll-station due to illegal tint on his windows. As police approached the vehicle, they reported a strong smell of marijuana and found wax and bottles of liquid, all of which tested positive for THC.
During his media availability following Wednesday’s practice, Dolphins head coach Adam Gase discussed the move to waive Orr. “It is accurate,” Gase said of the initial reports that Orr had been arrested. “We released him during practice.”
