The Eagles acquired Daryl Worley in a trade with Carolina last month, and already the cornerback is making news.

Just not the kind the team would like to see.

According to multiple reports, Worley was arrested Sunday morning after police found him passed out inside a vehicle blocking a highway in Philadelphia.

The NFL Network first reported the arrest.

"We are in the process of gathering more information about Daryl Worley's arrest this morning," the Eagles said in a statement.

According to NFL Network, Worley was arrested at 6 a.m. Sunday when he became combative with police, who administrated a Taser on him. The NFL Network also reported that a gun was recovered at the scene.

The incident occurred near the team facility.

Worley was traded last month from the Carolina Panthers to the Eagles for wide receiver Torrey Smith.

Worley, who was drafted by the Panthers in the third round of the 2016 draft, had two interceptions and 49 tackles for Carolina last season.
