Sanchez is facing misdemeanor charges of battery with injury, unlawful entry of a motor vehicle, and public intoxication.
He is said to have sustained stab wounds, while the other person involved suffered lacerations.
He remains at the hospital and has yet to be booked, likely given his condition.
“Sanchez was arrested at the hospital for battery with injury, unlawful entry of a motor vehicle and public intoxication, all which are misdemeanors. All involved parties have been identified, and no further individuals are being sought by detectives,” the statement reads.
“Sanchez is still in the hospital and has not been booked into the Adult Detention Center.”
Mark Sanchez was a standout for the USC Trojans before being drafted in the first round by the New York Jets in 2009. He played in the NFL for 10 seasons, later joining FOX Sports as an analyst.
He was supposed to call Sunday’s game between the Indianapolis Colts and Las Vegas Raiders for the network.
