Three FBI agents questioned former NFL tight end Jeremy Shockey at his home in Miami during the first week of February, as part of an international drug and gambling probe, according to a report by the New York Post.

At the heart of the probe is accused ringleader Owen Hanson. Hanson—also a tight end—played college football at USC under then-coach Pete Carroll and won a national championship in 2004.

On Jan. 28 federal prosecutors in San Diego charged Hanson and 21 others with running a multimillion-dollar operation called ODOG Enterprise.
