Broncos' Carlos Henderson Tried Eating Weed Before Arrest ... Cops Say
Broncos WR Carlos Henderson was arrested for possession of marijuana after a routine traffic stop on Sunday ... where he tried (and failed) to eat the evidence, according to cops.
It all went down Sunday afternoon in West Monroe, Louisiana ... when Henderson was a passenger in a car pulled over for speeding.
Cops noted a strong smell of weed coming from the car ... but Carlos and the driver, Alejandra Aviles-Jimenez, both denied possessing or smoking weed inside the vehicle.
But when a search of the car turned up weed around the passenger seat and what appeared to be the remainder of a joint, cops checked their tongues -- and Henderson's "contained a thick green residue."
Carlos said he smoked earlier in the day, but insisted he did not try eating any weed before (or during) the stop.
Cops weren't buying it ... and booked the former Louisiana Tech star, while letting Aviles-Jimenez go with a speeding citation. Henderson was later released on bond.
In a statement, the Broncos said they're "aware of the issue involving Carlos Henderson and are gathering more information."

Johnnie Walker Time's Up!!! Icon Gets Female Partner
Behind every great man is a great woman -- and apparently the same goes for drunk men, because the folks at Johnnie Walker whisky are about to roll out his female counterpart.
Diageo, the company that owns Johnnie, filed paperwork in early January to trademark the name Jane Walker for all alcoholic beverages except beer ... according to new docs.
It's unclear exactly what the Jane Walker products would be, but in the midst of the #timesup movement ... gender equality and female empowerment seem like probable themes.
This isn't the first time Jane's name has been tossed around either -- around the time of the 2016 election, Walker reportedly had an ad campaign titled "Jane Walker" in the works ... but scrapped it after Hillary Clinton lost.
Apparently that wound has healed, 'cause Jane's ready to go. Bottoms up?

Coachella 2018 Still No-Go on Weed Even Though Cali Says Yes
Coachella 2018 falls on 4/20, but those hoping to score and smoke weed openly in Indio are outta luck, despite California legalizing it.
The city of Indio, where Coachella takes place, is cracking down on marijuana use. The city isn't allowing the selling, cultivating or distributing of cannabis. Under the new law, each town can decide whether to allow recreational weed sales, and -- sorry to harsh your Queen Bey buzz -- Indio's decided it's a no.
Coachella isn't allowing marijuana or marijuana products on the festival site either.
The city of Indio still has to abide by state law which now allows you to possess a small amount of bud for personal use, but you can't smoke it out in the open.
One glimmer of hope -- neighboring cities like Palm Springs, Cathedral City and Desert Hot Springs are all weed-friendly, so if you're over 21 you can hit up a licensed dispensary there.
Pregame!

Rep. Adam Schiff Let Me Be Blunt ... Sessions' War on Weed is Bad, Bud!!!
Rep. Adam Schiff says it's surprising Jeff Sessions nixed Obama-era rules letting states deal with legal marijuana on their own terms ... because the Trump team claims to be all about states' rights.

Schiff may have had more dank stuff to say, but he was hurrying into his car for warmth. Damn bomb cyclone.
For the record ... recreational weed is also legal in Washington, D.C.
