Pro Bowl Eagles offensive lineman Jason Peters, 29, was arrested early Saturday for allegedly blaring music and resisting arrest in Shreveport, La., Sgt. Bill Goodin of the Shreveport police department said.

Police said they heard the music coming from Peters' vehicle in the downtown area, and when they approached the Eagles lineman, he refused to provide identification, leading to the resisting arrest charge, Goodin said. Peters was released on bond Saturday, police said. The amount was not disclosed.

According to the website TMZ, Peters was in town as a celebrity guest of rapper Rick Ross, who was arrested Saturday in a separate incident in Shreveport.

Earlier this month, the Eagles' King Dunlap was arrested in Nashville and charged with reckless driving.
