Tampa Bay Buccaneers' Jonsen arrested for DUI

His car appeared to be speeding and weaving in and out lanes, according to Tampa police.

TAMPA, Fla. — Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Travis Jonsen was arrested early Monday morning for driving under the influence, online jail records show.

Officers spotted a car on N. Dale Mabry Highway just north of Interstate 275 appearing to speed, weave in and out of the lanes and straddle the lane markers, according to a Tampa Police Department news release.

Its driver, Jonsen, was arrested by Tampa police around 3:18 a.m., according to jail records. The 25-year-old appeared to be impaired and refused to provide a breath sample, the agency added.

Wide receiver Travis Jonsen has not played in an NFL game yet but has been with the Buccaneers for parts of the past two seasons as a member of the practice squad. In his final season at Montana State, he tallied more than 1,000 all-purpose yards.

"During this Memorial holiday, please remember to use a ride-share service or a sober designated driver," the department said in a statement.
