OU football: Jalen Redmond arrested for suspicion of DUI

NORMAN — OU redshirt sophomore defensive lineman Jalen Redmond was arrested early Wednesday morning in Cleveland County for suspicion of driving under the influence.

Redmond was booked into the Cleveland County detention center at 3:34 a.m., according to online records.

Redmond is a former Midwest City standout who made four starts last season, including in the Big 12 Championship Game and in the College Football Playoff loss to LSU.

He led the team with 65 sacks and was third with 11 tackles for loss.

Redmond's importance figured to be magnified early in the season, when Ronnie Perkins is expected to serve a suspension.
