Every pee wee football player dreams of one day making it to the NFL. But at any given time there’s only room for about 1700 pro players. Some of the young athletes who make the cut are responsible with their newfound success, but others are less so. Sometimes the sudden wealth and fame leads to bad decisions, a brand new mugshot, and an embarrassing write up in the local paper.
According to the nflarrest.com, NFL players have been arrested a total of 869 times since 2000. So there’s roughly one new arrest of a pro football player every week. The longest period of time without a single recorded arrest is 64 days. The year with the biggest arrests? 2006, when 71 players were arrested.
But are some teams and positions more prone to having players land behind bars in the county pen than others? Check out this NFL player arrest infographic from Crimewire. It breaks down some of the most interesting facts about NFL arrests — including which player has been arrested the most times.
