A former Miami Dolphins player has found himself in jail again

The Orange County Sheriff Office arrested Dimitri Patterson late Monday night for an active felony warrant issued on Nov. 1 out of Miami-Dade County. The charges from that warrant: battery and culpable negligence.

This news and arrest comes almost nine months after Patterson became combative while trying to flee a Miami-Dade County courtroom in August. It took five police officers to tackle him and get him under control.

Patterson, 34, spent nine years in the NFL and had a two-year stint with the Dolphins from 2012 to 2013.
