After a string of arrests last offseason, the Bucs have kept their off-the-field noise to a minimum in 2012. That changed over the weekend.

The Los Angeles Times confirmed with the LAPD that Bucs cornerback Eric Wright was arrested for a felony charge of driving under the influence on Saturday morning. It was a felony because Wright was involved in an accident which involved injury. (Wright was unhurt.)

Wright allegedly told police officers he was drinking and refused to take a breathalyzer. The USC product ran into trouble with the law in college, but does not have any known incidents in the pros.

He signed a surprisingly large free agent deal with the Buccaneers this offseason after a solid-but-unspectacular season in Detroit this year. (The Lions narrowly avoided another arrest here.)

New Bucs coach Greg Schiano has stressed a new accountability since taking over. It will be interesting to see how the organization responds to this arrest.

Hopefully the Panther keep it clean this off season. There may be something wrong with me but I like to hear about other teams players having these problems.

      100% even if rest of team is really talented if they march young out to be qb and he plays like he has for 90% of his starts the panthers have already lost doesnt even matter how good the rest of the team is or isnt and also makes it hard to even tell how good they are.  They need true competition for young this offseason.

      Another renovation to BoA?

      By dave-o · Posted

      It will be awesome to have an improved stadium to lose in I guess....   https://www.yahoo.com/news/panthers-file-rezoning-bank-america-111500840.html     The Carolina Panthers have taken another necessary step toward renovating their home of the present and future. Panthers Stadium, LLC, filed its rezoning site plan with the city of Charlotte on Monday, initiating an important — if mostly technical — step toward renovating Bank of America Stadium. The filings state that the rezoning relates “primarily to technical aspects associated with improvements to Bank of America Stadium,” and that the rezoning is required because “the current stadium zoning is out of date” for the team’s stadium renovation plans.   The planned stadium updates include new seats installed throughout the upper and lower bowls; stadium safety and security enhancements; a reimagined South Lawn Pavilion; upgraded restrooms; exterior enhancements (including LED video boards) and more. Planning for the stadium renovation project will continue through 2025, with construction starting in 2026 and the renovation’s conclusion in 2029, The Observer previously reported.
