Former NFL star Andre Rison<\/a> is spending the weekend in jail … after being booked in Michigan to serve time tied to a second-offense impaired driving case, TMZ has learned.<\/p>\n

The Oakland County Jail tells TMZ the ex-wide receiver was booked into custody on Friday night and is scheduled for release Sunday.<\/p>\n

Court records obtained by TMZ show Rison pleaded guilty to a second-offense operating while intoxicated charge stemming from an August 2025 incident in Troy, Michigan.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Records show Rison posted a $5,000 bond during the case, but he still ended up with a 5-day jail sentence and 18 months probation following a hearing this week. He also owes more than $2,300 in fines and fees related to the case. An additional charge of open intoxication in a motor vehicle was dismissed.<\/p>\n

TMZ has reached out to Rison’s lawyer for comment … so far, no word back.<\/p>\n

Rison, now 59, was one of the NFL’s most electrifying receivers during a 12-year career that included stops with the Falcons, Browns, Jaguars, Packers, Chiefs, Raiders and Colts. He earned five Pro Bowl selections and won a Super Bowl with Green Bay during the 1996 season.<\/p>\n

The former star also became a pop culture fixture thanks to his high-profile relationship with TLC rapper “Left Eye<\/a>” — aka Lisa Lopes — including the infamous 1994 incident in which she burned down his Atlanta mansion.<\/p>\n

For now, though, Rison’s latest headline has nothing to do with football … it’s a jail stint.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Former NFL star Andre Rison is spending the weekend in jail … after being booked in Michigan to…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":702846,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[63],"tags":[3,349,99,2415,2525],"class_list":["post-702845","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl","tag-news","tag-nfl","tag-sports","tag-sports-news","tag-tmz-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/702845","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=702845"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/702845\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/702846"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=702845"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=702845"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=702845"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
