Notably, this is actually more than double the legal limit.
Police say the four-year NFL player was pulled over after they saw his black F-250 truck swerving on the road, which he actually managed to run into a ditch.
After being stopped, Cleveland admitted to the officers that he had drank "3-4" beers before getting behind the wheel.
However, when looking at Cleveland's weight of being 360 pounds, to have a Blood Alcohol Content level of this high is actually rather astonishing.
One fan pointed out on X, "A 130 lb man would have to drink 6 beers in 1 hour to blow .175. Ben Cleveland lists at 360 lbs on the Ravens roster, so he'd have to drink approximately 17 beers in 1 hour to reach that blood alcohol content. Even with his body processing the alcohol at slightly more than 1 beer per hour, this might reasonably be 20 beers over 3 hours prior to driving."
In view of Cleveland's career in the NFL, many believe this might shut the door on any possible return to the Ravens next season, as he had just played through his four-year/$4.8 million rookie contract.
The 6-foot-6, 26-year-old was a third round selection by the Ravens in the 2021 NFL Draft and has appeared in 54 games.
Ultimately, the former University of Georgia standout, has been charged with two different citations, one for DUI (alcohol) and the other for failure to maintain lane.
