Ben Cleveland's offseason has taken a troubling turn as the Baltimore Ravens offensive lineman was arrested on February 12, 2024, and is now facing a DUI charge. Cleveland was stopped by police in Milledgeville, Georgia, after swerving between lanes and almost crashing into a ditch. He admitted to drinking several beers earlier that evening and subsequently registered a blood alcohol content (BAC) of .178 during a breathalyzer test, well over the legal limit of 0.08.

After being booked, Cleveland spent a night in jail and was released on a $1,000 bond. This incident adds complexity to his upcoming free agency, as he is set to enter the market for the first time after four seasons with the Ravens. Despite participating in all 17 regular-season games last season, Cleveland found limited success on the field with only seven starts to his name throughout his career. His future with the Ravens remains uncertain amidst these legal troubles.
