According the report, Prescott as pulled over while driving his 2016 Cadillac Escalade and arrested.

His agency has yet to respond to requests from the Clarion-Ledger regarding a comment on the matter.

Prescott has been a hot name in recent months after he was named the Most Outstanding Player at the Senior Bowl back in January. His name has come up as a potential mid-round target for teams looking to a quarterback, but this news could have an impact on his draft status, as teams will question his judgement after getting arrested close to a month before the NFL Draft.

During his four-year career at Mississippi State, Prescott threw for 9,376 yards to go along with 70 touchdowns and 23 interceptions. He also ran for 2,521 yards and caught four passes for 88 yards receiving and scored 44 total touchdowns from scrimmage.
