NFL Arrests Database
U-T San Diego
The list cannot be considered comprehensive in part because some incidents may not have been reported and some public records proved to be elusive.
Mike Margolies's insight:
There are a number of reasons this database is so interesting. Sheer numbers are the first. 661 arrests since 2000. I haven't gone through the whole thing, but so far the Bengals and Broncos lead the NFL in arrests with 40 & 35. This is for arrests mind you, not convictions. Many charges dropped. Likely for good and bad reasons. Many of the arrests I'm sure were because of athlete status. A cursory look would tell me, if in the NFL stay away from clubs late at night and stop drinking and driving. I would guess taking a cab would not out a huge percentage. It might be the easiest investment an an NFL player makes is a deal with a local cab or limo service.
