University of Georgia safety Ja’Marley Riddle was arrested last week on two felony counts of possession of a controlled substance and a misdemeanor speeding charge, according to a police report obtained by WGIG 98.7 FM.
Riddle, who joined the Bulldogs as a transfer from East Carolina ahead of the 2026 season, was observed weaving through traffic at roughly 95 mph in an SUV on Friday night, according to the report. Glynn County police officers stopped Riddle and noted nervous behavior and an odor of marijuana coming from the vehicle.
Glynn County is on the Georgia coast near the Florida line.
The report detailed Riddle’s compliance as police discovered a bag inside a backpack containing “a large amount of multicolored packaging, some with a leafy substance stating marijuana, and some containing vapes stating THC.”
Riddle was charged with two felony counts related to marijuana and controlled substances, according to the report.
