Wisconsin Badgers assistant football coach Jack Del Rio was arrested last month on an OWI charge.
Del Rio, a longtime NFL coach, was serving as a senior adviser to Badgers coach Luke Fickell. He would resign from his position with the Badgers, coach Luke Fickell announced back then.
Things have only gotten worse as footage of the former Washington Commanders head coach has now surfaced.
Dashcam video emerged of former NFL head coach Jack Del Rio’s arrest after he allegedly struck a street sign and then a residential fence with his vehicle.
TMZ Sports released the footage that showed him moaning in apparent pain.

The video shows him becoming increasingly uncomfortable in the back of the car after telling him he was under arrest for DUI.
On three separate occasions, Jack Del Rio asked cops if he could relieve himself, even pleading with them at one stage: ‘Please, just let us f—ing take a leak.’
The officer responded, “I don’t have anywhere to take you right now, man.”
Del Rio continued to plead, asking, “Can we please go somewhere to take a leak?”
At the time of his arrest, Del Rio declined a breathalyzer test and was informed by the officer that he would be seeking a warrant to get a blood test.
As he continued to groan in pain, the officer asked him what was wrong, and he responded, “It’s just this pain.”
Once at the police station, he struggled to get out of the car and said that his “f–king arm won’t work.”
Where Does Jack Del Rio Go From Here?
Former NFL coach Jack Del Rio resigned from his position as senior adviser to Wisconsin coach Luke Fickell after an arrest for operating a vehicle while intoxicated.
The 61-year-old Del Rio was arrested after the vehicle he was driving struck a street sign, broke a fence, and ended up in a yard.
Since then, he has remained quiet.
Del Rio was the Washington Commanders defensive coordinator under Ron Rivera for four seasons and was fired before the end of that regime’s final season in charge.
Where he might end up is anyone’s guess.
He could see a return to the NFL in 2025 after months of no controversy.
