Browns nose tackle Shaun Rogers still in jail

CLEVELAND — Cleveland Browns nose tackle Shaun Rogers remains in jail after being arrested for trying to carry a loaded gun onto a plane.

Rogers was arrested Thursday at Hopkins International Airport. A .45-caliber handgun was spotted in his luggage while he was going through a security checkpoint.

Police said Friday that Rogers has not yet been charged. He was booked for carrying a concealed weapon, a third-degree felony that carries a penalty of probation to five years in prison.

Rogers likely faces disciplinary action from the NFL under its personal-conduct policy for players.

A three-time Pro Bowl selection, the 31-year-old Rogers has played two seasons with the Browns. Cleveland acquired him from Detroit in a 2008 trade.
