Titans offensive coordinator Todd Downing, 42, is arrested for DUI after win over Packers

Tennessee Titans offensive coordinator Todd Downing was arrested for drunk driving and speeding south of Nashville hours after the team’s victory over the Green Bay Packers in Wisconsin.

Tennessee Highway Patrol stopped 42-year-old Downing in Williamson County for allegedly speeding at the Moores Lane exit off Interstate 65.

The trooper saw clear signs of drunkenness from Downing, who was later booked into the Williamson County Jail at 3:30 a.m. Friday. He would be released hours later after being charged with drunk driving and speeding.

“A THP trooper was patrolling Interstate 65 southbound from Moores Lane when he saw a vehicle traveling at high speed,” a Tennessee Highway Patrol statement told DailyMail.com.

“The trooper performed a traffic check on the vehicle and contacted the driver, Todd Downing,” the statement continued. “The cavalryman noticed signs of paralysis and the smell of intoxicants emanating from the vehicle. Mr Downing was arrested for drunk driving. He was in the Williamson County Jail.”

Just hours earlier, the Titans and Downing celebrated a 27-17 victory over the Packers at Lambeau Field in Green Bay. Downing’s offense was particularly strong, beating the Packers 408 yards to 271.

Downing has a long history in the NFL, having previously coached the Titans’ tight ends after stints with the Minnesota Vikings, Oakland Raiders, Buffalo Bills, Detroit Lions and the St. Louis Rams.

A LexisNexis search reveals that Downing had been arrested earlier in 2006 in his native Minnesota for drunk driving. The case was eventually dropped, according to records.
