Overview

• Jail records show the former NFL quarterback was released Wednesday night after entering custody Monday morning.
• Cutler pleaded guilty to misdemeanor DUI on Aug. 26 and received one year of probation, a $350 fine, a one-year license revocation, and a DUI safety class requirement.
• He was expected to remain jailed until Friday morning but was marked as having served his sentence after roughly two and a half days.
• Local authorities have not provided a reason for the early release, and media inquiries to the sheriff’s office have not been answered.
• The crash that led to the case occurred in October 2024 in Franklin, where Cutler allegedly rear‑ended another car; a related gun charge was later dropped in the plea deal, and the other driver, Perry Lee, has a pending civil suit.
