Yet another black eye for the NFL, Rodgers, who was declared inactive for Week 4’s contest (he’s yet to play a snap this season) was picked up on the IUPUI campus.
To make the situation even worse, teammate Loucheiz Purifoy was in the car with him.

While neither Da’Rick Rogers nor Loucheiz Purifoy are big name players for the Indianapolis Colts, this is the last thing the franchise needed after owner Jim Isray was arrested back in March. It of course is the last thing the NFL needed as well given their recent public image.
As of right now there doesn’t appear to be much information regarding the situation, though it doesn’t appear as if Purifoy was arrested alongside Rogers.
The most important thing here is that nobody was hurt by the selfish actions of Da’Rick Rogers, assuming he was driving drunk. Stay with FanSided as will continue to update any information regarding the arrest.
Rogers played in five games for the Colts last season hauling in two touchdowns on 14 receptions.
