Mallett arrested on suspicion of DWI

Ex-NFL QB Mallett arrested on suspicion of DWI

 

[DarrylS]

At least the headline does not say, "Former New England QB arrested on suspicion of DUI"...

The press missed on that opportunity..

 

[PP2]

What a sad conclusion to a blown career.

There are a few others that didn't miss a chance for that. They didn't use "Former Texans QB", of course, or any other team he was on but they picked the Patriots for obvious reasons

the classic example of a million dollar arm and a 10 cent brain.

The Associated Press in particular went that route:
Former Patriots Quarterback Ryan Mallett Charged With Drunk Driving In Arkansas

 

[NormZauchin]

Just think of the opportunities for creative journalists. "Second cousin of former Patriots practice squad member charged with tax evasion."

Mallett never seemed to good from my perspective. When I saw him on Hard Knocks he came across as a very immature person. Can’t see his career ending any different than it did with a fizzle.

What a sad conclusion to a blown career.

Read that he might try out for the XFL....

 

[wizwor]

Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.

 

[203Pat]

I remember hearing that he looked good early in camp in 2013. It turned out he only looked good because he was competing against Tim Tebow...

Color me disappointed: I thought this was going to be about the Ginger Hammer.
