According to KVUE Sports, Bears running back Cedric Benson was arrested early Sunday morning for boating while intoxicated and resisting arrest. He’s out on $14,500 bail.
This is not his first arrest.
Back in 2004 Benson spent time in the Del Valle Correctional Facility for criminal trespassing.
He was found guilty of breaking into a woman’s house in search of a stolen television.
Well, it looks like another first round bust for the Bears (and one could certainly make that argument before this incident). This should make Chicago fans that wanted the Bears to draft Rashard Mendenhall in the first round real happy. At least the team nabbed Matt Forte in the second.
