Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Roddy White arrested

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Roddy White has been arrested for failure to appear in court.

White had an outstanding warrant relating to charges for "non-transparent material on windows" of his car, but failed to appear at court to face the traffic charge, according to the Atlanta Journal Constitution.

The 32-year-old was arrested in the early hours of Tuesday morning before being released on bond at 6am, Gwinnett County Jail confirmed.

White was a first-round Draft pick for the Falcons in 2005 and has since gone on to become the team's all-time leader in receiving yards.

The four-time Pro Bowler had 63 catches for 711 yards last season, scoring three touchdowns as the Falcons stuttered to a 4-12 record.
