The Baltimore Ravens have released running back Bernard Pierce after he was arrested this morning for driving under the influence of alcohol.
The 23-year-old was stopped by police just before 2am, and then taken into custody after he failed sobriety tests.
On the way to the station, Pierce allegedly told police: "Do you know what happened the last time a Ravens player got a DUI? I'm getting cut tomorrow, not like you care."
Pierce scored just two touchdowns in 13 games last season.
