Ex-Detroit Lions tight end Brandon Pettigrew was arrested early Sunday morning in Oklahoma City and charged with disorderly conduct and public drunkenness.

The 31-year-old former first-round pick had been outside the Pretty Please Social Room at 104 Flaming Lips Alley around 2 a.m. Sunday morning. While the Oklahoma City Police Department was responding to another call at the club, officers observed Pettigrew in an argument with two friends who were trying to get Pettigrew to leave the area, according to the police report read to ESPN by Oklahoma City police officer Travis Vernier.
