Keenan Allen Faces Minimum Three-Game NFL Suspension

A 0.224 blood-alcohol reading upgraded his arrest to a Class A misdemeanor and creates the possibility the league will extend the CBA’s three-game minimum.

Overview

  • Police arrested Allen after finding his car parked in a no-parking zone on Aug. 30 and reporting signs of intoxication during an early-morning traffic check.
  • Court records show Allen’s blood-alcohol content tested at 0.224, a level that triggered a more serious Class A misdemeanor under Indiana law.
  • Prosecutors have filed misdemeanor charges in the case and an attorney conference is scheduled for Oct. 26 as the criminal process moves forward.
  • Under the NFL’s collective bargaining agreement a three-game suspension is mandatory for this type of offense and the league can increase that ban when intoxication levels are especially high.
  • Allen remains on the Colts’ active roster and played in Week 1, but any suspension is expected to follow the court process and could affect Indianapolis’s receiver depth when it takes effect.
