University of Georgia linebacker Natrez Patrick and reserve wide receiver Jayson Stanley were arrested on misdemeanor marijuana charges on Saturday night after the SEC Championship game.

Patrick was arrested on a misdemeanor marijuana charge, while Stanley was arrested for DUI, misdemeanor possession of marijuana and speeding. The arrest was Patrick’s third drug related arrest after being arrested for another misdemeanor drug charge earlier this season which led to suspension.
