Kirkland, WA (My Sportsbook) - Seattle Seahawks tight end Jerramy Stevens was sentenced to two days in jail for reckless driving. Stevens, 22, pleaded guilty to the lesser charge after he was arrested for drunken driving and prosecutors recommended the two-day sentence. Stevens was also ordered to pay a $1,000 fine as well as court costs. In addition, the judge gave the tight end two years of probation and 25 hours of community service. Stevens is also ordered to attend Alcoholics Anonymous meetings. Stevens, Seattle's 2002 first-round draft pick, caught 26 passes for 252 yards and three touchdowns last season for the Seahawks. He signed a five-year $6.2 million contract last summer. The contract, however, does include provisions that require him to repay portions of a $2.3 million signing bonus if he is convicted of wrongdoing. Earlier this month, Stevens was sentenced to five days in jail after he violated probation from a hit-and-run conviction while he was still a student at the University of Washington. |
