Guess he's not coming back. Then again, they gave a futures contract to Ryan Murphy, and they sent him home before the Super Bowl

DUI is the one thing I'll never understand. Maybe it's because I've lost a friend to it, or maybe because all it takes is one iota of common sense... but you have to be a complete ******* idiot to even entertain doing it, IMO.

Difference is that Ryan was not charged with anything. Just his brother was. They sent him home to avoid distractions before SB

He could have killed someone. No excuse for this.

I was out with friends in Denver. I drove and had too much to drink. I took a cab home and called a cab in the morning to retrieve my car. It was towed before 7:00 am. So that cost an additional $175. I know it is cheaper then a DUI, but still the city and the parking lot owners should understand that being responsible should not be punished.

I know this does not really apply to Keo's situation, but it always pisses me off to think about being towed for doing the right thing.

Would we be having this conversation if he was pulled over for texting and driving?? I'm not sticking up for him but texting and driving has become just as bad if not worse than drinking and driving.
As a motorcycle rider, it scares the crap out of me.

You still did the right thing but i agree your car should not be towed when you make the right decision not to drive while impaired.

Is $175 pocket change for a guy like you, as is an NFL player?

If I go to a bar, I find a DD or take another means of transportation other than driving. Curious....where was your car parked, if in the bar parking lot, then that's wrong. Unless they have a policy of you having to remove your car after so much time.

Well, he's a UFA, so technically he wouldn't be "cut". We have no idea if they wanted him back anyway, but the team has no obligation to him at this point.

Ok, but when they tow the car, they have no way of knowing why it was left there, so that's way easier said than done.

Broncos reserve free safety Shiloh Keo was arrested for driving under the influence in Idaho early Saturday.

"We are aware of the matter involving Shiloh Keo and are in the process of reviewing it," said Patrick Smyth, the Broncos' vice president of public relations.

Keo, 28, was booked into the Ada County jail at 2:19 a.m. Saturday by the Idaho State Police. Keo recently tweeted he was heading from Denver to his offseason home in Idaho.

Since the Idaho State Police were involved. Did he stop at a bar somewhere in Idaho, and then get on the road again, or was he drinking while he was driving? Does not appear that it is a situation where he could/would call a taxi, uber, etc. as he was driving to where he lives in Idaho.

He can find normal employment like the rest of us. His family will be fine.

I would agree if he had a history of bad choices. By that standard you should be requesting TJ Ward, Aquib Talib, and Bradley Roby be not allowed on the team.

It's all about risk/reward for the team. For a fringe player like Keo, you can't really afford to have them getting into shit like this. A star gets more leeway. Fair or not, that's just how it is.

Just because of the sheer timing of it, you could be right. This incident will probably be forgotten by then. Had he done this in July, though, he probably isn't getting invited to camp.

I think I'd almost trust someone more who was drunk but at least paying attention to the road than I would someone who has their face buried in their phone. Not that I'd trust either, but you could definitely make the case that texting could be more dangerous.

Absolutely. I've almost been hit just here in my neighborhood several times by soccer Moms in big SUVs that can't drive in the first place, let alone while they're mashing buttons on their phones.

Or passing dudes on the highway who are swerving like a drunk maniac only to see them texting or reading the phone as I pass them.

Why - were they all arrested for DUI as well?

If they were, then yes, I think all professional athletes should be held to higher account. Maybe not roby as age and celebrity status should/may be a factor in determining suitable punishment

Its not just texting. I was on the highway the other day and some young chick passed us with her phone up high on her steering wheel. I sped up kind of next to her. She was surfing the effing internet on her phone while she was driving.
Any kind of distractive driving like that irks the hell out of me.
Keep an eye on accidents in the near future. Most are someone being rear ended by a distracted driver. It's getting bad and I think they should get just the same consequences as a drunk driver.

I actually agree, to a point, but don't have the motivation to split hairs right now.

I can tell you for certain however, if a plumber in my community tests positive for drugs he will lose his job.

First offense DUI? Not likely.

Unfortunately, the "legal system"of all the pro sports league give more extra chances to those with more talent. If Von Miller was the one that got busted, you know the Broncos would be working with him, in spite of the fact that he's already been suspended for off the field issues. For someone that I honestly had never heard of before this article, he's as good as gone.

He's not under contract, so they can't "cut" him. They can just simply choose not to re-sign him.
