Former NFL offensive lineman Gosder Cherilus — the 17th overall pick in the 2008 NFL Draft — was arrested over the weekend … after he was accused of peeing on a passenger while aboard an airplane.
Massachusetts State Police say the incident occurred on Sunday morning … while the former footballer was on a Delta flight bound from Boston to Ireland.
Cops say Cherilus was “unruly” while on the plane — and when officers arrived at Logan Airport at around 2 AM and demanded he get off the plane after it landed, they say he “became irate and uncooperative.”
Ultimately, police say 40-year-old Cherilus was hauled off the plane, arrested, and booked on charges of disorderly conduct and disturbing a flight crew.
He’s reportedly due to be arraigned in court on Monday.
After being picked by the Lions in 2008, Cherilus — a star at Boston College — went on to play nine seasons in the NFL. He logged snaps with Detroit, Indianapolis and Tampa Bay … and earned 116 total starts in his career. He announced his retirement in March 2017.
