Reggie McNeal Arrested

After never quite catching on in College Station, Reggie McNeal's going to have a hard time just holding on with the Bengals.

Sunday he became the seventh Cincinatti player arrested this year. McNeal is facing resisting arrest charges after elbowing an officer who'd denied him admission to a nightclub. After being told the club was closing, McNeal became aggressive, eventually elbowing one of the cops, according to Houston police spokesman Gabe Ortiz.

This isn't the first sign that McNeal has turned out to be a typical Bengal.

When Odell Thurman was arrested on drunken driving charges earlier this season, McNeal was one of the passengers. Thurman was later suspended for the season. Another passenger, Chris Henry was suspended a couple weeks later for two games.

McNeal was cut early with the Bengals then signed to the practice squad and finally put on the 53-man roster on September 7. He's played two games but not done anything. I think I'd be surprised if they even bother suspending him. It seems more likely they'll cut him and make him an example to the other rowdies on that team.

I know I would.
