Ex-NFL star running back Marshawn Lynch was arrested in Las Vegas on Tuesday after cops claim he was driving under the influence.

Las Vegas officers said 36-year-old Lynch was pulled over on Fairfield Avenue and West Utah Avenue around 7:25 a.m. Tuesday. Sources told TMZ he was driving into curbs on the side of the road before the traffic stop.

After speaking with Lynch, cops believed he was driving under the influence, and was taken to jail.

Lynch did not submit to a breathalyzer, but he had his blood drawn.

Lynch — who played for the Buffalo Bills, Seattle Seahawks, and Oakland Raiders during his career — is a five-time Pro Bowler, a two-time NFL rushing touchdown leader, and a Super Bowl Champion.

Seattle announced in a press release earlier today that Lynch will re-join the team this season as a special correspondent to help produce “creative content for a variety of projects.”
