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.
