The former 1st round pick of the Raiders in 2020 was arrested Friday night in Las Vegas after he allegedly threatened a valet with a gun.

Arnette, 25, was released earlier this year by the Raiders after social media videos surfaced that he was waving around a gun and making death threats.

Arnette signed with the Miami Dolphins practice squad on December 15th 2021, but never appeared in a game.

He then signed a reserve/future deal with the Kansas City Chiefs on January 20th.

Arnette was arrested at the MGM Park in Las Vegas on Friday night after an altercation took place between him and a valet worker. According to TMZ, he was arrested for assault with a deadly weapon, carrying a concealed weapon, and possession of a controlled substance.

Here are the full charges laid against Arnette from Friday’s arrest.

A witness from the scene also told TMZ that Arnette tried to retrieve a car without a valet ticket. Then Arnette pulled a gun and cops were called.

No official word from the Kansas City Chiefs has come out and one doesn’t expect the Chiefs to even have this on their radar as they host the Cincinnati Bengals Sunday at 3 PM EST for the Conference Championship.

One would expect that Arnette’s stint with the Chiefs could be over after this event.
