The Baltimore Police have better things to do with their time than add NFL players to the watch list. San Francisco 49ers defensive tackle Darnell Dockett is definitely a character, but he’s nobody Baltimore City PD should be worried about.
Dockett was one of the more vocal athletes to take to Twitter during the Freddie Gray riots in April:
Baltimore is off the chain right now... Damn wish I could speak to the people.... Smh tear the city up and we still lose.

It appears that Dockett’s tweets during those riots raised concern with the police department — enough concern that he is now considered a “riot threat” based on a social media “chatter” violation:
So according to @BaltimorePolice I'm a "Riot Threat" on social media. @YourAnonNews pic.twitter.com/lYk4XJqOHO
