Markquese Bell Facing Felony, Misdemeanor Drug Charges
Dallas Cowboys safety Markquese Bell was arrested on Friday and charged with possession of a controlled substance and marijuana, according to Collin County jail records. The possession of a controlled substance is a felony, while the marijuana possession is a Class B misdemeanor. Bell is now subject to a penalty from the NFL under its personal-conduct policy. The 27-year-old defensive back is entering the second year of a two-year, three-year, $9 million deal with Dallas. Bell went undrafted out of Florida A&M before joining the Cowboys for his NFL debut in 2022. In his four years with the team, he has 142 tackles (86 solo), one interception, seven pass breakups, and three forced fumbles in 48 games played (11 starts). He played in 17 games (eight starts) last year and had 41 tackles (20 solo), his first career interception, and a forced fumble. Bell could face a short suspension in 2026 to open his fifth year in the NFL.
