Bosworth was arrested early Friday, Los Angeles police Sgt. Alex Ortiz said. The 43-year-old Bosworth was being held on $5,000 bail.
Bosworth played for Oklahoma before retiring three years into a 10-year contract with the Seattle Seahawks because of a shoulder injury.
His movie credits include "Stone Cold," "Virus," "Three Kings" and "The Longest Yard."
