The Washington Commanders have dismissed tight ends coach Ben Steele, the team announced on Monda y. A replacement is expected to be announced on Tuesday.
In the announcement, the Commanders said they would share no further information. But The Athletic’s Nicki Jhabvala reported that Steele was arrested on suspicion of driving while intoxicated on June 7 in Loudoun County, Virginia.
Additionally, Steele was charged with obstruction/resisting an officer without force for refuusing to take a blood/breath test on the scene, according to court records ( via ESPN’s John Keim ).
Steele was reportedly let go for violating team policy. Following the arrest, he was placed on leave and the Commanders reported Steele’s arrest to the NFL.
Steele, 48, was hired by the Commanders in February after he coached tight ends for three seasons with the Arizona Cardinals under Jonathan Gannon. He joined Dan Quinn’s staff in Washington after Gannon was fired by Arizona.
This story will be updated with further information.
