Walcott, who stayed at the home overnight, was arrested along with Martin, 32, who was charged Friday with selling cocaine and marijuana near a school and a park, reports DailyVoice.
Martin has an extensive criminal history and has twice served state prison sentences.
Born in Paterson, Walcott moved to Hackensack while in middle school. His play at Hackensack High School earned him a scholarship to the University of Virginia. He had a brief stint with the Cleveland Browns before a 2013 arrest following a 3 a.m. fight outside outside the Palace Gentlemen’s Club in Passaic in June 2013 got him cut from the team.
Walcott faced similar circumstances with the University of Virginia in early 2011, when he and two teammates got into an argument with a group of people outside an off-campus party near James Madison University around 1:30 in the morning.
