Eddie George Speaks On Rachel Connor’s DUI Arrest: ‘I Was Not Cheating On My Wife!’

Yesterday, we posted a story (here) about former NFL star Eddie George being a passenger in the car of pro golfer Rachel Connor when she was arrested for DUI at 2 AM earlier this week.

As a result…to clear up any misconceptions or rumors, George spoke out today about the incident.

“George — who’s been married to singer Tamara Johnson since 2004 — tells TMZ … Connor was “simply trying to be nice by offering me a ride” Wednesday morning after a golf event in Florida.”

Here’s George’s official statement to TMZ:

“As part of a two-day charity golf event, a group of us who had played together on Tuesday celebrated at dinner. The group included Rachel Connor.”

“After dinner, as everyone left the restaurant together, we realized that Rachel lived the closest to where I was staying. So she offered to drop me off. I believed her to be competent to drive and not impaired at all. We were stopped shortly after we left.”

“At first, I hesitated to respond to this story. But I now see that people are willing to think the worst. So my wife, Tamara , and I believe we have to address this.”

“Rachel Connor was simply trying to be nice by offering me a ride. No one in our group felt she was impaired or we all would have stopped her from driving.”
