Kendall Langford loses a diamond earring

Poor Kendall Langford.

The Miami Dolphins defensive end lost a precious gem, a 2.5-karat diamond earring.

Langford searched high and low, enlisting teammates, including the entire defensive line, groundskeepers and team officials and public relations interns to try to find the expensive bauble that's worth at least several thousand dollars. However, it was nowhere to be found.

“I forgot I had it on,” Langford told the Palm Beach Post after searching for an hour. "I’m going to go to meetings and then come back out here."

Langford doesn't have insurance for the earring.

This isn't unprecedented. Former Baltimore Ravens Pro Bowl cornerback Chris McAlister once lost a similarly-sized diamond earring and offered a big reward, but it was never found.

“I remember seeing it before practice, saying, ‘Wow, that’s a nice diamond,’” Ryan Baker said. “Lots of guys come out here with them on. I guess it builds their swag or whatever.”

It's an expensive lesson to learn: Take out the diamonds before you hit the football field.
