Personal life

[edit]

Kendricks was stopped for a speeding violation in the early morning hours of September 2, 2017, while heading back to Green Bay from a Wisconsin Badgers football game. He was let go with a warning, but a citation for marijuana possession was issued in December 2017 as a result of a search during the traffic stop. The citation was dismissed in October 2018 but later that month, Kendricks was charged with misdemeanor marijuana possession.[22] In January 2019, an attorney for Kendricks entered a not guilty plea on his behalf.[23] Kendricks later pled no contest and was sentenced to six months probation, with the charge to be dropped if eight hours of community service was completed.[24]
