Kansas State TE Sammy Wheeler Arrested on Multiple Charges, Released on Bond

Scott PolacekMay 17, 2020

Kansas State Wildcats tight end Sammy Wheeler was arrested Sunday before he was released on $500 bond.

Ryan Black of The Mercury reported the news, noting Wheeler was arrested on charges of "unlawful use of a driver's license, purchase/possession/consumption of liquor by a minor (first offense) and interference with a law enforcement officer (intending to obstruct by falsely reporting information)."

A spokesperson for the football team said "the matter will be handled internally."

Wheeler arrived at Kansas State as a quarterback and 3-star prospect, per 247Sports' composite rankings.

He redshirted during the 2018 campaign, although the Wildcats' website notes he was a co-winner of the Red Raider Award as a top contributor to the scout team as a quarterback.

Wheeler transitioned to tight end heading into the 2019 season and finished the year with four catches for 78 yards. He suffered a torn ACL during Kansas State's win over Kansas on Nov. 2 and was lost for the rest of the season.
