White, 32, was due to appear in court for a charge of “non-transparent material on windows,” and was booked by police at about 4:30 a.m. for his failure to do so. Per the report, White was released on a $168 bond about 90 minutes after he was booked.
In his nine NFL seasons since he was selected in the first round of the 2005 NFL Draft, White has stayed out of trouble, and an arrest for something as minor as window tinting isn't likely to draw attention or punishment from the league.
White finished with fewer than 1,000 yards receiving for the first time since 2006 during the 2013 season, tallying just 63 receptions for 711 yards and three touchdowns. In addition to the loss of Julio Jones on the other side of the offense, White dealt with hamstring and ankle injuries. He sat out three games after playing in the first 133 games of his NFL career.
Prior to his down year, White earned four trips to the Pro Bowl and racked up 7,773 yards receiving over a six-season span that included 49 touchdowns.
