Brandon Spikes, released by the New England Patriots last week for ties to an alleged hit-and-run accident, placed his 2011 AFC Championship ring on eBay for just under $19,499.
Spikes spent last season in Buffalo but rejoined the Patriots in free agency.
Police found Spikes’ car damaged and abandoned on a highway near Foxborough. Investigators learned that a claim Spikes hit a deer was questionable because of a rear-end collision involving a Nissan Murano.
Spikes was released by the Patriots and subsequently charged in the accident.
