Outagamie County prosecutors have filed a marijuana possession charge against Green Bay Packers tight end Lance Kendricks stemming from a traffic stop in 2017.

A misdemeanor count of Possession of THC was filed Friday against the 30-year-old.

In 2017, Kendricks was given a citation for Possession of THC. On Oct. 12, that citation was dismissed on a prosecutor's motion.

On Friday, prosecutors filed the possession charge as a misdemeanor.

In Sept. 2017, a state trooper pulled over Kendricks on I-41 in the Town of Grand Chute. A criminal complaint states Kendricks was clocked driving 81 in a 70 mph zone.

The trooper stated she smelled marijuana through the window, according to court documents. The trooper searched the car and found a glass container with a leafy substance inside of it. She also recovered rolling papers and a grinder.

The leafy substance tested positive for marijuana, according to the complaint.

Kendricks is scheduled to appear in court on Nov. 15.
