Former Georgia Bulldogs quarterback Stetson Bennett has been arrested. He was arrested for public intoxication.

According to WFAA, Bennett was arrested early Sunday morning in Dallas. We do not know why he was in Dallas at this time.

The report said that a man was banging on doors. This led to the police being called and go to the location. 

WFAA’s Rebecca Lopez said that once upon the location, the police found Bennett. They found that he was intoxicated.

While the police located Bennett and determined that he was intoxicated, they did not say whether he was the man banging on the doors that initiated the call.

Following his arrest, he was placed in a detention center. Lopez reported that he was released after 11 am local time.

Bennett guided the Bulldogs to their second straight College Football Playoff National Championship earlier this month. They blew out the TCU Horned Frogs at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California.

Last year, he guided the Bulldogs to their first Championship in 41 years. They defeated the Alabama Crimson Tide at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. 

This was Bennett’s last game of his college football career. The 25-year-old may garner interest from NFL teams in the upcoming NFL Draft in April. 

However, this arrest may cause some teams not to pursue him. If he is drafted at all, he would be a late round draft pick.
