At this point, we may have to ban all Raiders players from using vehicles.
Nate Hobbs has found himself in more trouble. The Las Vegas Raiders cornerback, less than two weeks after he was arrested on a DUI charge, was cited for driving more than 100 mph on a Las Vegas freeway, according to 8NewsNow.
“The officer noted Hobbs was driving at 110 mph in a 65-mph zone, a person with knowledge of the incident told the I-Team. Hobbs car was towed away.
“We understand that a traffic citation was issued to Mr. Hobbs and we will address it in the court system,” attorneys for Hobbs, David Chesnoff and Richard Schonfeld, said in a statement to 8 News Now.”
Hobbs was previously in the news after being arrested earlier this month in Las Vegas on a driving under the influence charge. Police allegedly found Hobbs asleep at the wheel on a parking lot exit ramp at the Cromwell Hotel on the Las Vegas Strip.
Hobbs recorded 74 total tackles and had one interception for the Raiders this season, his first with the team after they selected him with the No. 167 overall pick in the draft.
His two incidents are disheartening as they come months after former Raiders wide receiver Henry Ruggs III was arrested and charged with DUI resulting in death. Ruggs allegedly was driving his car 156 mph before he collided into another vehicle, killing 23-year-old Tina Tintor and her dog. Ruggs is currently on house arrest.
