Former Washington football star Fred Smoot turned himself in to authorities in Virginia Thursday, according to the Loudoun County Sheriff's Office.
Fred Smoot, who spent seven seasons with Washington's football team, turned himself in to authorities in Virginia Thursday, according to the Loudoun County Sheriff's Office. The sheriff's office said Smoot was arrested on a civil issue.
The 44-year-old has been arrested multiple times over the years. Back in 2019, he was taken into custody for failing to appear in court. In 2014, he was arrested on a domestic violence charge by his former girlfriend but was found not guilty. Smoot was selected by the Washington Redskins in the second round of the 2001 NFL Draft. He spent nine total seasons in the league – two with the Minnesota Vikings – and played in over 400 games, racking up 387 tackles, five forced fumbles, and 21 interceptions.
