That's the real irony of it. In most, he still would have been charged for carrying concealed without a permit, but he wouldn't have done any hard time.
Exactly, and he still got a break because he could of got 3.5 years, but they got it down to 2, and will probably be released in about 20 months. He still caught a break during the sentencing.
Maybe this is the end of his career, but I think he got what he deserved. Good wake up call to the other NFL players who revel in the “thug” culture of packing heat in nightclubs and when driving around town without permits because it makes them feel like a badass.
