Ex-Raider Damon Arnette Reportedly Crashed 4 Rental Cars In The Span Of One Month

Henry Ruggs will be in prison likely for the better part of two decades due to a decision he made to drive 154 mph while drunk, crashing into and killing a 23-year-old woman and her dog.

Apparently that wasn’t the only driving-related issue with their 2020 first round draft picks.

Damon Arnette, the player taken right after Ruggs in last year’s draft was released by the team Monday after waving guns around in a video posted to social media. According to NFL Network’s Ian Rappoport, that wasn’t the first of the off-the-field trouble for Arnette.

The corner reportedly crashed four rental cars in the span of a single month during his rookie season. That’s more than one a WEEK.

There were troubling off-the-field signs everywhere for #Raiders first-rounder Damon Arnette. For instance: In his first year in the NFL, Arnette crashed four rental cars within roughly a month, sources said. Now, after a tumultuous weekend including online threats, he’s out.
