Former Alabama running back TJ Yeldon was arrested by authorities in Baldwin County, Alabama early Sunday morning as first reported by WKRG. Yeldon is facing a third-degree domestic violence charge, a third-degree criminal mischief charge, and one count of interference with a domestic violence emergency call.

Yeldon allegedly turned off the lights in his house and refused to open the doors when the cops arrived, but eventually let them in when authorities threatened a forced entry. Yeldon was detained, taken to a corrections center, and released on $2,000 bond.

Yeldon was the feature back on Alabama's 2013 and 2014 teams, being named All-SEC First and Second Team in those two seasons, respectively. He was also a part of Alabama's 2012 National Championship team. Yeldon played six seasons in the NFL with the Jaguars and Bills.
