The Indianapolis Colts played their final preseason game on Saturday. Then, on Sunday morning, wide receiver Keenan Allen was arrested on DWI charges.
Allen was released from jail the same day, and as he was being let go, he was seen getting into the back seat of an Infiniti that was driven by someone else.
Colts’ Keenan Allen In The Headlines For All The Wrong Reasons
Of course, the internet took notice of the fact that Allen had recruited a driver to help him get home following his DWI.
One commenter couldn’t help but point out the “terrible parking job.”
“Terrible parking job to cover it.”

One asked the question everyone was thinking, by pointing out that Allen “has a driver for picking up from jail but not when drinking?”
Another keen observer happened to notice the 34-year-old Allen stumbling a bit while making his way to the car. Again, the internet notices everything.
“Stumbling out of jail is crazy 🤣”
One reactor jokingly said, “At least he got a ride home this time.”

Another commenter agreed, questioning Allen’s decision-making when it comes to finding his way home, especially when inebriated.
“Can get a ride home from jail but not from wherever he was drinking. Really, dude.”
In essence, everyone seemed to have the same reaction here. Allen apparently picked the wrong time to get some help getting home. Had he made a different decision over the weekend, he could have avoided this entire fiasco.
Allen ranked 27th among receivers in PFN’s WR Impact Score (77) last season with the Los Angeles Chargers, recording 81 receptions for 777 receiving yards and four touchdowns.
Now he’ll look to build upon those numbers with the Colts once he’s back on the field.
