Jay Cutler Allegedly Offered Car Crash Driver K to Not Call Police


Former NFL Quarterback Jay Cutler Arrested for DUI and Gun Possession in Tennessee

New allegations surrounding Jay Cutler’s DUI arrest have surfaced.

The NFL star was charged with a first offense of driving while intoxicated—as well as possession of a handgun while under the influence, failure to exercise due care and a violation of implied consent law—on Oct. 17 in Franklin, Tenn., after a minor traffic collision between two cars, according to authorities.

A police affidavit obtained by E! News Oct. 17 indicates that the driver of the vehicle Jay’s white Ram allegedly rear-ended told responding officers that the 41-year-old attempted to flee the scene after offering him $2,000 to not call law enforcement.

While speaking with Jay, officers noticed that former Chicago Bears quarterback’s speech was “thick-tongued, slurred and mumbled” and his eyes as “bloodshot,” according to the charging document. Jay—who shares kids Camden, 12, Jaxon, 10, and Saylor, 8, with ex-wife Kristin Cavallari—allegedly “had an overwhelming odor of an alcoholic beverage emitting from his person,” but denied consuming any alcohol before admitting he’d had “a little bit.”
