Baltimore Ravens guard Ben Cleveland was arrested for DUI last week after allegedly driving his truck with a BAC over twice the legal limit. Police say that he blew a .178, according to a report by TMZ.
According to Baldwin County Sheriff’s Office documents that TMZ obtained, Cleveland was suspected of drunk driving in Milledgeville, Ga. on Feb. 12.
During the stop, authorities said Cleveland admitted to drinking “approximately 3-4 beers” at a nearby country club before getting behind the wheel. They also wrote in the report his eyes were “glossy” — and an odor of booze emanated from his ride.
The documents also stated that Cleveland failed at least one field sobriety test. They also note he blew a .178 — more than double the legal limit of .08 — when a Breathalyzer was administered.

A total of 16 therapists from eight different spas have now made allegations of inappropriate behavior by Tucker. All of the incidents reportedly occurred during sessions from 2012 to 2016.
After receiving a tip on Jan. 9, The Banner began investigating and spoke to six massage therapists who recounted troubling firsthand experiences with Tucker from 2012 to 2016. The women said they had long wanted to tell their stories.
“I’ve told people about this over the years, and they either act like it’s hot goss[ip] or a joke,” said one therapist who worked on Tucker in 2016. “But it was really degrading.”
A tweet about Tucker from 2021 has also gone viral. @MCsburner on X wrote, “Justin Tucker is canceled but it’s not my place to provide the reason. Let’s just say he’s been told by many massage places to never come back.”

Attorneys for Tucker denied the allegations of inappropriate behavior, calling them speculative and “impossible to prove.”
With Tucker facing 16 allegations of sexually inappropriate behavior, the Ravens might consider moving on from their longtime kicker. Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk pointed out that if Baltimore decides to part ways, the Ravens might wait until the start of the new league year in March. That’s when he can be released in a way that divides the cap charge over two seasons.
Without a post-June 1 designation, releasing Tucker would trigger a cap charge of $7.5175 million for 2025. By waiting to activate the CBA rule that allows a team to sever ties while spreading the dead money over two years, the Ravens would take a...
