Raiders CB Nate Hobbs cited for driving 110 mph 2 weeks after DUI arrest

Not two weeks since Nate Hobbs was arrested for DUI, he’s cited for driving 110 mph

Yes, Nate Hobbs is in the news for the wrong reasons again. The talented cornerback just completed a standout rookie season and while that’s all we should be talking about with him, we’re not.

Sunday night Hobbs was cited by the Nevada Highway Patrol for going 110 mph in a 65 mph zone. This according to local CBS Channel 8 New Now.

That’s an extreme rate of speed to be traveling for anyone. Even had this been an isolated incident, we could just call it as such and figure he’ll learn from it.

But this isn’t isolated. Just two weeks earlier, Hobbs was arrested on DUI charges. That’s a far more serious charge and one that didn’t yield any sort of punishment, with his head coach saying he would let the legal process happen.

His DUI was not just a big deal in and of itself, it was a big deal in light of the team’s several other run-ins with the law over the past year.

Last January, teammate Josh Jacobs was cited for DUI. Then during the season, Henry Ruggs III was arrested for DUI resulting in death for an accident that killed a young woman and her dog. Then a short time later, after fellow CB Damon Arnette was released following a video he posted on social media in which he was threatening someone’s life while brandishing several firearms, it was revealed Arnette had crashed four rental cars in a month’s time.

To go out after all that and drive recklessly like that is extremely irresponsible, shows terrible judgment, and questionable character. Nate Hobbs, you need to wake up and grow up.
