Former Packers DT Muhammad Wilkerson charged with drunk driving

It has been a rough 12 months for Muhammad Wilkerson. After signing a one-year contract with the Green Bay Packers last spring, Wilkerson entered the 2018 season as a starter at the 5-technique defensive end position. However, right as Wilkerson was starting to come into his own early in the regular season, his campaign was cut short by injury. Now an arrest has put a damper on his 2019.

Wilkerson was reportedly arrested for drunk driving in New York City this weekend, as first reported by the New York Daily News. The report indicates that Wilkerson was pulled over after running through a stop sign, at which police realized he was impaired; a breathalyzer showed him over the 0.
