Former NFL star Jay Cutler begins serving prison sentence after making deal

Former NFL star Jay Cutler has begun serving a short jail term in Tennessee. The 42-year-old ex-quarterback, known for his time with the Broncos, Bears, and Dolphins, reported to Williamson County Jail on September 29.

Cutler pleaded guilty to misdemeanor DUI after a car crash last October. Police said he had bloodshot eyes, slurred speech, and admitted to drinking “a little bit.” Officers also found two firearms in his car. “He looked intoxicated and refused a field test,” one report stated.

As part of a plea deal, prosecutors dropped several charges, including a weapons count. Cutler was sentenced to four days in jail, one year of unsupervised probation, a DUI safety course, and a $350 fine. His driver’s license has been suspended for one year.

The former athlete’s legal troubles follow a highly public divorce from reality star Kristin Cavallari, with whom he shares three children. “I’ve got a divorce decree… it breaks down everything,” Cutler recently said, pushing back on money claims.
