Arnette could see his time with the Raiders come to an end sooner rather than later. TMZ reported on Friday that a woman in Nevada is suing Arnette for injuring her in a hit-and-run on October 14, 2020.
She said Arnette illegally left the scene after the crash and headed to the Raiders’ facility instead as he was late for a meeting.
The Raiders have yet to release Arnette or make a public statement on the situation. With this lawsuit, along with a second lawsuit separate from the hit-and-run incident being reported, the writing is on the wall for the former first-round pick.

TMZ reported that the car crash happened early in the morning when Arnette thought he had missed the Raiders’ facility exit. He swerved into the right lane at 65 MPH, where the woman suing him happened to be.
She says Arnette left after the incident, which is both illegal and immoral. However, TMZ reported that Arnette did stay to see if she was okay. Arnette left and had a friend be the one to provide contact information to authorities.
The police went to the Raiders’ facility because Arnette’s friend didn’t provide accurate information.
Along with that lawsuit, Damon Arnette is facing a second lawsuit that was reported by Deadspin Saturday. Deadspin reported that it had to do with a hotel-casino in Las Vegas, where Arnette had an issue with his valet parking. Deadspin reported,
Arnette’s lawyer said that Arnette denies the allegations and looks forward to addressing the claims in court. Arnette has a lot working against him, however.
Arnette posted a video of himself saying he would shoot someone while holding a gun in his hands.
Between Ruggs, Jon Gruden, and Damon Arnette, the Raiders haven’t been able to escape the spotlight for the wrong reasons. They handled the Ruggs and Gruden situations professionally and as well as anyone could under those circumstances.
Now, eyes are on the Raiders once again as they deal with this new issue.
