Elandon Roberts campaigns for police harassment inquiry

According to a recent report from ESPN News Services, Patriots linebacker Elandon Roberts is attempting to convince a Texas district attorney’s office to investigate a March incident involving Roberts and Adam Watkins, a sheriff’s deputy police officer. The alleged incident occurred on March 10 right outside of Roberts’ home in Fort Bend County.

Roberts was reportedly pulled over for speeding – driving 59 mph in a 35 mph zone, specifically – and then failing to provide insurance. Roberts later claimed in a written statement that he “felt so harassed I couldn’t even remember where my insurance paper was in my car.
