Carr Joined The NFL In 2008

The 36-year-old was a former 5th round draft pick of the Kansas City Chiefs. He started every game for four seasons before heading to Dallas. He also spent time with the Baltimore Ravens. A solid starter for over a decade, Carr would ultimately play 195 games throughout his NFL career.

Carr Was Paid Handsomely By Dallas

Back in 2012, Carr made headlines after signing a five-year, $50 million contract with the Cowboys. He retired after the 2020 season.

His DWI arrest is just another example of an athlete who has plenty of money to take Ubers, but still chooses to allegedly get behind the wheel drunk.
