Former University of Texas football quarterback Vince Young was arrested in Austin on a misdemeanor charge of driving while intoxicated.
He was booked into Travis County Jail at 12:46 a.m. Monday, records show.
He has appeared before a Travis County judge, who set his bail at $2,000, court officials said.
As a quarterback at UT, he led the Longhorns to victory over University of Southern California in the 2006 Rose Bowl. He later went on to play in the NFL for six seasons with the Tennessee Titans and Philadelphia Eagles.
Young now serves as a diversity and community engagement officer in the Division of Diversity and Community Engagement at the University of Texas at Austin and helps raising money to support the division’s many educational programs, according to school officials.
