Cops Reveal Details of Star QB’s Public Intoxication Bust

The former Georgia quarterback was in Dallas for draft training when he was booked.

New information has come to light about championship-winning Georgia quarterback Stetson Bennett’s January arrest. Bennett was allegedly booked for public intoxication in Dallas after someone called the police at 6:15 a.m. complaining about a suspicious man roaming the neighborhood banging on doors. When police approached Bennett, they saw him “walking further back in the gated area to hide behind a brick wall by a random (apartment) in attempt to possibly avoid (the arresting officers) detection,” according to an incident report released to the Athens Banner-Herald. Bennett complied with police but had no cell phone on him and could not provide the address of the friend he claimed to be visiting, all the while exuding a strong scent of alcohol from his “breath and/or body.” Bennett, who is now in Indianapolis for the NFL Scouting Combine, led the University of Georgia to two consecutive national championships.
