Former NFL running back Eddie Lacy is facing DUI-related charges after being arrested in Scottsdale, Arizona, late Monday night, according to the Scottsdale Police Department.
The former Green Bay Packers running back was pulled over at about 10:40 p.m. after officers responded to reports of a possible impaired driver and spotted a vehicle matching the provided description. The officers said they saw him committing several traffic violations.
He was booked on four separate DUI charges, including an extreme DUI charge tied to a reported blood alcohol level of 0.20% or more. He was also taken into custody on a charge of possessing an "open container in vehicle," a Scottsdale police spokesperson said.
Lacy, 34, played college football at Alabama from 2009-12 and was part of three BCS national championships. In the 2012 BCS Championship Game against Notre Dame, he was named offensive MVP.
In the 2013 NFL draft, Lacy was selected in the second round by the Packers. He ran for nearly 1,200 yards with 11 touchdowns his first year and was named AP NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year.
