The Las Vegas Raiders released former first-round draft pick Damon Arnette on Monday.
Arnette, an Ohio State product, was seen on video holding up multiple guns and even threatened to kill somebody. The video was deleted Friday night, but it had already made its way around social media over the weekend.

The NFL Network also cited sources saying that Arnette crashed four rental cars within roughly a month during his rookie year, suggesting that Arnette was an off-the-field problem from the beginning.
Arnette was the second player in a matter of a week released by the team.
Wide receiver Henry Ruggs III, another first-round draft pick in 2020, was cut by the Raiders last Tuesday after he was charged with two felonies, one of which was a DUI that resulted in death after he allegedly drove 156 mph and crashed into another car.
