INDIANAPOLIS -- A contrite former Ole Miss defensive lineman Robert Nkemdiche said he was drunk when he made headlines after falling off an Atlanta hotel balcony in December 2015.
Nkemdiche faces a marijuana possession charge as a result of the balcony fall at the Grand Hyatt Atlanta in Buckhead, Ga. on Dec. 12, 2015. He said he's paid some fines but the case is still pending.
Nkemdiche denied he used drugs, saying he was drunk and that the charge resulted from the actions of another member of his party. When no one would take the blame, the charge was aimed at him because the room was in his name, he said.
