Seahawks fullback Derrick Coleman has been arrested on charges of vehicular assault and felony hit-and-run.
Coleman was arrested in Bellevue.
Fire officials said a passenger in the pickup truck was taken to the hospital with minor injuries after the vehicle flipped on its side.
An image from Bellevue police showed another vehicle on it's roof on a hillside above the crash.
King County Jail records show he was booked into the jail at 1:20 a.m. Thursday. His bail was listed as denied.
Bellevue police will have a news conference at 2 p.m. regarding Coleman's arrest. We'll stream it live on kiro7.com.
The Seattle Seahawks tweeted Thursday morning that Coleman has been suspended indefinitely pending further information.
Coleman's agent tweeted Thursday that he may have fallen asleep behind the wheel on the way home from the Seahawks facility in Renton Wednesday night.
Coleman, who is deaf, made the national spotlight during the Seahawks 2013 Super Bowl championship season. He was featured in a Duracell commercial for overcoming his disability and playing in the NFL.
The Seahawks posted on Twitter that Coleman has been suspended indefinitely.
Thursday afternoon, Coleman's agents, Derrick Fox and Mark Bloom, released the following statement:
"On the evening of October 15, 2015, Seattle Seahawk Fullback Derrick Coleman, Jr. was involved in a two-car collision soon after leaving a team meeting. While the facts of the case are still being determined, it seems Derrick may have fallen asleep while driving home from a Seahawks' facility.
The health and well-being of all involved is our primary concern, and we are thankful to report that both parties are expected to make a full recovery. We will continue to work closely with the local officials while a full investigation is being conducted."
