Just Jack Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 Former Bills DE Alex Carrington accused of DWI, criminal possession of a weapon (wkbw.com) Quote The Niagara County Sheriff's Office said around 1:30 a.m. Monday deputies initiated a traffic stop at 263 South Transit Road in Lockport for speed in zone and no headlight. According to the sheriff's office while interviewing the driver of the vehicle, former Buffalo Bills defensive end Alex Carrington, deputies noted signs of potential intoxication. Carrington allegedly refused all requests to exit the vehicle, was non-compliant and a gun magazine was allegedly observed in plain view in the pocket of the driver's side door.

FilthyBeast Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 Honestly surprised he still lives in the area since he's been out of the league for so long.

Not sure if I believe it. If you sort it by year there has been an systematic decrease in the number of arrests from 61 in 2013 to 18 last year (although based on YTD it will be higher this year). All in all, 18 arrests out of over 2000 males in the age group between 20 and 35 is not very large and the NFL is to be congratulated in getting the numbers down.

Not sure if I believe it. NFL player arrests (at least among active players) seem to be right around the expected number—maybe even a tad lower than expected—compared to arrest data for entire country as indicated here: https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s/2019/crime-in-the-u.s.-2019/topic-pages/persons-arrested#:~:text=The estimated arrest rate for,3%2C011.0 arrests per 100%2C000 inhabitants. Not sure I'm ready to say there is a criminality issue in the NFL... unless we're talking about Josh Allen not getting a chance in overtime.

blacklabel Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 (edited) Always had high hopes for this guy since he was a former third round pick. He showed some stuff here and there and hung around on the roster for a few seasons but never did much of anything. Once he got cut from the Bills I think that was it for him. I could be wrong but I don't believe he was picked up by any other teams following his three seasons here. Interesting he still hangs out around here. Perhaps he made some friends or really likes the area.. or maybe he made a couple baby mamas while he was here.
