Football "Honey Badger" Tyrann Mathieu to enter NFL draft

Former LSU defensive back Tyrann Mathieu plans to announce Thursday he is entering the next NFL draft, a source close to the player said.
Mathieu, known as the "Honey Badger," was a Heisman Trophy finalist known for his knack for making plays last year. But the 20-year-old Mathieu was suspended for this season due to a substance abuse issue he has continued to work on.
He was arrested last month on a possession of marijuana charge.
He was dismissed from the football team in August for failing a drug test, and entered a treatment program run by former NBA player John Lucas.
Instead of transferring to another lower-division school to play this season, Mathieu re-enrolled at LSU but is not playing football.
Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.

Not sure he'll be picked up in the draft. He was a sophomore last year and did well but had problems with substance abuse then. One of the things going around in social media here in Baton Rouge was "Honey Badger smokes what he wants" Then got booted from the team beginning of this year, went to rehab in Texas, came back and got popped shortly after returning to school at his apartment along with the no talent Jordan Jefferson.....I just don't see any consistency for this kid or a future in the NFL without a couple of more years of college ball and staying on the straight and narrow
