Aaron Hernandez isn't the only NFL player who is in a whole lot of trouble right now. Ausar Walcott, a rookie linebacker for the Cleveland Browns, was also just arrested. He's been charged with attempted murder after an incident that took place early Sunday morning outside of a nightclub in New Jersey.

According to police, Walcott allegedly punched a man named Derrick Jones in the head outside of The Palace Gentlemen's Club in Passaic, N.J. on Sunday. And that punch was apparently so devastating that it resulted in Jones getting rushed to a local hospital where he is currently in critical condition. So police have placed Walcott under arrest and are currently holding him on $500,000 bail.

We don't know why all of these NFL players are facing serious legal problems right now. But we do know one thing: NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell can not be happy about all of the bad news coming out of his league. Seriously, what's next?!
