Ex-NFL CB Terence Newman arrested hours after he was honored by Kansas State for going into the College Football Hall of Fame

Former NFL cornerback Terence Newman, a College Football Hall of Fame inductee, faced legal trouble just hours after being honored by his alma mater, Kansas State. Newman, who played for the Wildcats from 1999 to 2002, was arrested late Saturday night in Manhattan, Kansas, on charges of disorderly conduct and criminal trespass following an altercation at a local bar.

The incident occurred shortly after Kansas State defeated Kansas in a hard-fought college football matchup, where Newman’s legacy as an All-American and 2002 Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year was celebrated. Newman, a standout return specialist and shutdown cornerback, was selected fifth overall in the 2003 NFL Draft by the Dallas Cowboys and went on to earn Pro Bowl selections in 2007 and 2009.

His NFL career spanned 15 seasons, including stints with the Cincinnati Bengals and Minnesota Vikings, where he accumulated 42 career interceptions and three pick-six touchdowns. Newman is set to be inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame later this year alongside other notable figures like Aaron Donald and Marvin Harrison.
