Dwayne Jarrett arrested for DUI

The up-and-down (with more downs that ups) career of Panthers receiver Dwayne Jarrett continues.

Our friends at WFNZ radio in Charlotte tell us that Jarrett has been arrested for driving while impaired.

The incident occurred at 2:08 a.m. Tuesday; he’s currrent being held on $2,000 bail.

Jarrett, a fourth-year player, has three career starts. In three appearances this year, he has caught two passes for 40 yards.

In June 2008, he pleaded guilty to driving while impaired. In most states, a second offense leads to more serious penalties. Under the league’s substance-abuse policy, it most likely means a suspension will be coming, if/when he is convicted or pleads guilty.

Chargers receiver Vincent Jackson received a three-game suspension after pleading guilty to a second-offense DUI charge.
