One of Oklahoma’s top defensive lineman got in trouble early Wednesday morning.

Jalen Redmond is set to start or be right in the thick of things at defensive tackle with LaRon Stokes. He redshirted his freshman season after suffering from blood clots before showing a ton of promise his second year for the Sooners.

At 3:34 a.m. CT Wednesday morning, Redmond was booked into the Cleveland County Jail for a DUI. Norman, Oklahoma, the home of the University of Oklahoma, is located in Cleveland County.

Sooners Wire reached out for comment from Oklahoma football at 8:52 a.m. Wednesday morning, but has not received anything yet.

This is Redmond’s first legal offense since arriving at Oklahoma out of the 2018 recruiting class. This is Oklahoma’s first player to get in any sorts of legal trouble this offseason.

He made 23 tackles in 2019 with 13.5 tackles for loss and and 6.5 sacks. Redmond played in 13 of the 14 games.
