Jay Cutler will be released on October 3 

Cutler, 42, is currently behind bars at the Williamson County Jail. But his stay at the jail will be short. He’s expected to be released on Friday, October 3.  

The ex-Chicago Bears player was sentenced after pleading guilty to a DUI in late August. A judge also ordered him to pay a $350 fine. After he’s released, he’ll be on probation for a year and will have to attend a DUI safety class. His Tennessee driver’s license has also been revoked. 

Former Chicago Bears quarterback was charged with DUI last year

Cutler’s legal problem began in October 2024, when he rear-ended another vehicle in Franklin, Tenn. Police noticed that the former Very Cavallari star had “bloodshot eyes” and “a strong odor of alcohol” on him, People reported at the time. Officers also found two guns in his car. 

Cutler was arrested and charged with a DUI, illegal possession of a gun while intoxicated, implied consent and failure to exercise due care to avoid a collision. The gun charge was dropped as part of Cutler’s guilty plea on the DUI charge, WGN reports. 

Cutler played three seasons with the Denver Broncos, eight seasons with the Bears, and one season with the Miami Dolphins. He married Kristin Cavallari from The Hills in 2013. They had three children before divorcing in 2022.
