Redskins Guard Chad Rinehart was arrested for misdemeanor public intoxication outside a pizza place around 2 a.m. Monday in Cedar Falls, Iowa.

According to the police report, Rinehart smelled of alcohol and was swaying. He declined a breath test and was taken to jail. He was released shortly thereafter and will be arraigned next month.

In a statement, the Redskins said, “We are aware of this incident but have no further comment.”

Rinehart, a third-round pick in 2008, started four games this past season, but ended the year on injured reserve.
