NFL Arrests by Team
I apologize for the source but Michael Rosenberg is out looking for malfeasance again. Hopefully this time he didn't just make shit up, but he (allegedly) tracked the number of arrests by NFL team. There were, at least to me, some surprises (Broncos, Colts on the high side, Patriots and Dolphins on the low side).
Edit: the author is actually not that Mike Rosenberg (NTMR)

7 of those Lions arrests came in one offseason.

didn't Titus young get arrested twice in less than 15 hours? And I think he had a third in that same off season
August 11th, 2015 at 12:11 PM ^
It was actually
Johnny Culbreath
Leshoure x2
Fairley x2
Aaron Berry x2
I don't think Titus was arrested while a member of the Lions. I think he got cut for being subversive to the team and then he started going completely insane.

and thanks for the clarification. I always just remember the double arrest in less than a day part
August 11th, 2015 at 1:09 PM ^
Who was the last Lion to get arrested?
August 11th, 2015 at 11:22 AM ^
Pats would have been even lower without yours truly as he probably accounted for a couple of the 5....

I don't think he should count in this stat because Ivory was a UDFA. Looking at it like that the Texans have had 0 roster players arrested since 2009.

Good for them. They should be commended, possible even rewarded, for this.
August 11th, 2015 at 12:06 PM ^
They are huge on character. Owner Bob McNair won't sign off a a draftee/signee if there are virtually ANY red flags. Fans aren't huge fans of it bc it can be challenging to find and keep good talent. But if you hold up your end of the deal they are very loyal.

I'd be interested to see the college version...

Google Fulmer Cup.

No much to do in MInnesota.
August 11th, 2015 at 11:47 AM ^
Ha Ha. Yeah, great place for things to do.
All I know, is I drink a lot out here. We all do. Maybe that's the problem. I don't know the numbers or anything but I think the majority of the arrests are DUI related. At least I know I hear a lot about them.

With all the lakes around the Twin Cities, they must have their own version(s) of Jobbie Nooner....

(drinking counts twice)
Kind of how in The Shire, Hobbits have First Breakfast and Second Breakfast?
August 11th, 2015 at 11:28 AM ^
with certain individuals, interesting with the coaching change there has not been much of any reported problems.
August 11th, 2015 at 12:03 PM ^
Was Irsay included in that figure? Hehe
August 11th, 2015 at 12:07 PM ^
I'd be curious to see how many of arrests came from different individuals.
August 11th, 2015 at 12:14 PM ^
... Pats just look a little low given A. Hernandez's crime.
August 11th, 2015 at 12:37 PM ^
Blasted by the media and fans for having the most arrests and they're not even in the top 10.
August 11th, 2015 at 12:57 PM ^
Not one team had zero arrests?! That's lousy. How many convictions?
August 11th, 2015 at 12:59 PM ^
Raiders really need to up their game if they want to maintain their repuation.
August 11th, 2015 at 2:01 PM ^
Skol Vikings - skol essentially means drink - right?
