Striker Marlon King, 33, was released on police bail pending further inquiries into the crash near Newark, Nottinghamshire.
A Porsche, a Volkswagen Polo and a Vauxhall Astra were involved in the incident on Friday afternoon on the A46/A17 interchange.
The seriously hurt man was airlifted to Nottingham's Queen's Medical Centre.
