Las Vegas Raiders defensive end Charles Snowden was arrested on charges of driving under the influence earlier this week.
Officers booked Snowden into the Clark County Detention Center early Tuesday morning after police responded to reports of a "suspicious vehicle."
Snowden, 26, received a misdemeanor DUI charge as a first-time offender and was released without bond on Wednesday.
"Mr. Snowden will be entering a not guilty plea and we will respond in court, which is the appropriate forum," Snowden's attorneys David Chesnoff and Richard Schonfeld said in a statement Thursday, according to KLAS.
Snowden has played in all 13 games (seven starts) in his first season with the Raiders (2-11), recording 30 tackles, six quarterback hits and 1.5 sacks.
Undrafted out of Virginia in 2021, he played in two games for the Chicago Bears that season before spending time on the practice squads of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2022) and Raiders (2023).
