Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Nolan Smith Jr. faces speeding and reckless driving chargers after being clocked at 135 mph on an interstate highway in Georgia.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

The Twiggs County Sheriff’s Office confirmed the details of the Wednesday night arrest of Smith, who was released after about an hour after making bond.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Smith, the Eagles’ 2023 first-round pick out of Georgia, was caught speeding in a 70-mph zone at 10:41 p.m. ET, the Georgia Gazette first reported. The Savannah, Ga., native has a court date set for July 14.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

Smith, 25, recorded three sacks and 31 tackles in 12 games (all starts) last season. He has 10.5 sacks, 91 tackles, 25 quarterback hits, two forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries in 45 career games (22 starts) and helped the Eagles win Super Bowl LIX. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n
