Eagles former player arrested for DUI during Super Bowl week on the Las Vegas Strip
During Super Bowl Week, former Philadelphia Eagles player Janarius Robinson was arrested for DUI on the Las Vegas Strip.
LAS VEGAS: It is depressing. However, that is accurate. One of the less shocking stories of this early Super Bowl Week in Las Vegas is that a former Philadelphia Eagles player is in trouble with the NFL.
According to reports from “Sin City,” edge rusher Janarius Robinson was taken into custody early on Tuesday morning on the Las Vegas Strip and charged with DUI.
It might be stated that Robinson, 24, who was a player for the Eagles in 2022, is familiar with the area and knows how to stay out of trouble because he currently plays for the Raiders in Vegas.
Unfortunately, although Robinson (who began his NFL career with the Vikings as a fourth-round choice out of Florida State) isn’t a high-profile player, the arrest didn’t involve a member of the San Francisco 49ers or the Kansas City Chiefs, the two teams competing in Sunday’s Super Bowl.
The NFL still feels badly about it.
The league has made a concerted effort to ensure that its players avoid getting into any gambling problems while they are here. However, the NFL shouldn’t have to advise players to stay away from DUI charges—and not just because of the bad press that would follow.
The tragic tale of Patrick Mahomes Sr. being arrested for a second DWI in Texas has already taken up most of the league’s attention. The judge granted him bail, so it appears like the father of the Chiefs quarterback will be able to travel to Vegas for the big game.
