GILBERT, Arizona — Former Philadelphia Eagles QB Donovan McNabb was arrested for driving under the influence back in late June after he allegedly rear-ended a car at an intersection, according to ESPN.
It is McNabb’s 2nd DUI arrest in recent years.
Statement from The Gilbert Police Department: On 06/28/2015 at approximately 2335 hours, officers responded to a non-injury collision involving two vehicles which occurred just west of the intersection at E Chandler Heights Rd and S Higley Rd in Gilbert, AZ. Subsequent investigation revealed Donovan McNabb (11/25/76) was impaired by alcohol and collided in a rear-end fashion with another vehicle which was stopped at a red traffic signal. Donovan was arrested for DUI at 2358 hours and transported to the Gilbert/Chandler Unified Holding Facility for processing, after which, he was cited and released.
From ESPN: — “The six-time Pro Bowler also served a one-day jail sentence last year following a 2013 arrest on misdemeanor DUI charges in Arizona.
McNabb played 13 years in the NFL after being drafted by the Philadelphia Eagles with the second overall pick in 1999. He led the Eagles to four straight NFC Championship Games from the 2001 to 2004 seasons, and one Super Bowl berth that ended in a 24-21 loss to the New England Patriots in 2005.
McNabb also played for the Washington Redskins in 2010 and Minnesota Vikings in 2011 before retiring.” —
