Patriots Dennard's Long Summer Continues (UPDATED With Dennard's Side)

((HT: 1011now.com Lincoln))

The long summer of former Nebraska cornerback Alfonso Dennard (mugshot pictured right, thanks 1011now.com) continues with his early morning arrest for DUI.

Dennard was pulled over a little after 2AM (and what does the HQ say about anything after 1AM?) and failed a field sobriety test...

He was taken to a Lincoln-area "detoxification center," but not a jail. He is also accused of refusing a chemical test and an unknown driving infraction. He has not been charged in any of the events from this morning.

Dennard was placed on two years of probation back in March after he was convicted for felony assault on a police officer back in April 2012. He is supposed to serve a 30-day jail sentence beginning March 1 for that conviction. According to court records, the first requirement of the probation is that Dennard "Shall not violate any laws and shall refrain from disorderly conduct or acts injurious to others."

Oops...

It is currently unknown how the arrest will affect his current probation status or the delayed jail sentence.
Here's the early morning coverage from Lincoln...


FRIDAY UPDATE: NFL Network's Ian Rapoport tweeted out some interesting information

Dennard twice took a breathalyzer and the results showed he was below the legal limit. However, the “officer told [Dennard] he hadn’t blown hard enough, thus the did not comply designation.”

Rapoport added that Dennard was not asked to take a blood test but did pass a field sobriety test.
