Packers Trevor Davis Arrested For LAX 'Bomb Joke:' Report

The 2018 Green Bay Packers are expecting to have a more explosive offense moving forward in 2018, however it's unlikely that anybody thinks this is how they'd go about it.

On Saturday, authorities at the Los Angeles International Airport say Green Bay Packers wide receiver Trevor Davis was arrested and now faces charges of making "criminal threats," after making a joke about explosives that was overheard as he an a woman he was with were on their way to Hawaii.

According to ESPN.com, Davis was arrested Saturday after making a joke to a woman he was with at the Los Angeles International Airport.

"Yesterday, Trevor Davis checked in at the Hawaiian Airlines ticket counter and was asked the usual questions about whether he was carrying any aerosol cans, knives, weapons or explosives," Public information officer Rob Pedregon said in an ESPN report. "Davis turned to his female companion and asked if she remembered to pack the explosives. He was then taken into custody and booked."

"The Packers are aware of the matter involving Trevor Davis," the Packers said in a prepared statement. "We are in the process of gathering more information and will refrain from making any further comment as it is an ongoing legal matter."

Davis was later released and due back in court on May 3.
