Pro Career
On November 9, 1994 Moss was arrested in Madison WI, with possession of 0.4 grams of crack cocaine. He was suspended from the University of Wisconsin football team and sentenced to two years probation. Although not drafted the following year, he was invited to the Miami Dolphins training camp. After being cut, Moss then signed with the St. Louis Rams and in the 1995 season he accumulated 90 yards on 22 carries. This was his only playing time in the National Football League and he was released by the Rams during the team's 1996 summer training camp. This was followed by a brief off season stint with the Green Bay Packers in 1997 and brief stints in the World League of American Football, the Arena Football League, and the XFL. After a seven year hiatus from football dating back to 2000, Moss returned to the football field with his hometown, minor league, Racine Raiders in July 2007.
Moss has a previous drug use history and was last arrested in 2006 for felony possession of cocaine, 2nd offense. After his latest arrest he was incarcerated at Dodge Correctional Institution in Waupun, Wisconsin.

Famous quotes containing the words pro and/or career:
“The upbeat lawyer/negotiator of preadolescence has become a real pro by now—cynical, shrewd, a tough cookie. You’re constantly embroiled in a match of wits. You’re exhausted.”
—Ron Taffel (20th century)
“What exacerbates the strain in the working class is the absence of money to pay for services they need, economic insecurity, poor daycare, and lack of dignity and boredom in each partner’s job. What exacerbates it in upper-middle class is the instability of paid help and the enormous demands of the career system in which both partners become willing believers. But the tug between traditional and egalitarian models of marriage runs from top to bottom of the class ladder.”
—Arlie Hochschild (20th century)
