Arizona Cardinals' J.J. Arrington Arrested

Arizona Cardinals running back J.J. Arrington was arrested and charged with disorderly conduct after reportedly being involved in a fight in his home town of Rocky Mount, North Carolina.

As of the most recent report, Arrington was being held in Nash County Jail.

A second-round draft pick after a great final season at Cal, Arrington has been mostly a disappointment in three years with the Cardinals. Last season coach Ken Whisenhunt got him more involved in the passing game with some success, but as a runner he has 467 yards and 3.1 yards a carry in three seasons. He's just the kind of marginal player whose job could be in jeopardy if he can't stay out of trouble off the field.
