Former NFL star Eddie Lacy was jailed in Arizona following an arrest on Monday night.
Police accused the erstwhile pro running back of driving while under the influence of alcohol.
“According to the Scottsdale Police Department, the ex-Green Bay Packers tailback was pulled over at around 10:40 PM — after officers said they saw him committing several traffic violations,” TMZ reports.
“He apparently elicited signs of being intoxicated during the stop … as an SPD spokesperson tells TMZ Sports Lacy was ultimately arrested and booked on four separate DUI charges, including “Extreme DUI — BAC .20 or more.”
Lacy’s mugshot has also been released since his arrest.

Eddie Lacy’s NFL Career Didn’t Quite Go According To Plan
Eddie Lacy was a second-round pick by the Packers in 2013 and wasted little time establishing himself as a formidable weapon on offense, clocking over 2,000 yards and 20 touchdowns in his first two seasons to earn Pro Bowl and second-team All-Pro Honors as a rookie.
He was also named the Offensive Rookie of the Year in 2013.
Unfortunately, Lacy wasn’t as effective in the two years that followed and was out of the NFL by the time his stint with the Seattle Seahawks ended in 2017.
