That incident involving the Cowboys specifically involves nose tackle Josh Brent.
Per multiple reports, Brent is being held on charges of intoxication manslaughter in Irving, Texas. He was booked at 4:14 a.m. local time.
As a result, Brent won’t be making the trip to Ohio for a game against the Bengals in which Brent would have played a significant role, due to the absence of Jay Ratliff, who has a groin injury.
Brent spent time in jail after a DUI arrest while in college at Illinois.
