Nolan Smith Apologizes for 136 MPH Arrest as NFL Conduct Review Remains Unclear

Summary
Nolan Smith said Monday he apologized publicly and directly to Eagles leaders after his May arrest for allegedly driving 136 mph in a 70-mph zone on Interstate 16 in Georgia.
Twiggs County deputies cited the Eagles linebacker for speeding and reckless driving after stopping his 2026 Lamborghini; authorities said he was cooperative, posted bond and was released without injuries.
Philadelphia appears to have handled the matter internally — Smith said “nothing came from it” — and he remains on the roster, expected to play significant snaps and under contract through 2027.
The unresolved question is league discipline: an arrest often triggers an NFL Personal Conduct Policy review, but the NFL did not say whether any investigation into Smith is open or closed.
