Former Denver Broncos quarterback Jay Cutler was arrested on four charges in Franklin, Tennessee on Thursday, according to a report from TMZ (via Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk).
Cutler is accused of “failure to exercise due care, violation of implied consent law, and possession of a handgun while under the influence,” according to TMZ.
Cutler, 41, was booked and jailed before posting a $5,000 bond.
Cutler was a first-round draft pick by the Broncos in the 2006 NFL draft, where he played for three years before being traded to the Chicago Bears, where he spent the bulk of his career. After eight years in Chicago, Cutler spent the 2017 season with the Miami Dolphins before retiring.
Cutler went 3,048-of-4,920 passing for 35,133 yards with 227 touchdowns and 167 interceptions in his 12-year career.
Cuter never played in a Super Bowl, getting only as far as the NFC divisional game against Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers. He did lead the NFL in interceptions twice during his career.
