AMELIA, Ohio -- One day after being charged with driving while intoxicated early Saturday following a traffic stop, Cincinnati Bengals cornerback Deltha O'Neal was declared inactive for Sunday's game against the Raiders.

The two-time Pro Bowl player had a blood-alcohol level of 0.10, above Ohio's legal limit of 0.08, the State Highway Patrol said. O'Neal was alone in his car and arrested at the scene, Sgt. Kevin Long said. O'Neal took a breath test and was released.

Rookie Jonathan Joseph will start for O'Neal against Oakland.

O'Neal is to appear in Clermont County Municipal Court on Dec. 12. The seven-year veteran is the eighth Bengals player arrested this year. Rookie receiver Reggie McNeal was charged with resisting arrest this week outside a Houston nightclub.

Bengals spokesman Jack Brennan said Saturday he was unaware of this latest arrest. The team withholds comment on unresolved charges against players, he said.
