Cowboys safety Damontae Kazee was arrested early Tuesday morning.  According to reports the early morning arrest in a Dallas suburb too place after he was pulled over for a traffic violation.

Kazee reportedly showed signs that he had been drinking before eventually failing a field sobriety test.  He was then arrested and charged with DWI.

From WFAA:

According to police, Kazee was taken into custody just after 3 a.m. But he was released around 12:30 p.m. Tuesday afternoon after posting $2,500 bond.

Police said Driving While Intoxicated is a Class B misdemeanor.

The Cowboys organization told WFAA’s Jonah Javad they are aware of the incident, but don’t have a comment at this time.

If you're going to get arrested, doing so during a bye week is the time to do it.  There's no game to be a distraction for.  Obviously the Cowboys would probably prefer a quiet week off, but they're well versed in how to handle these kinds of things.
