Marshawn Lynch Avoids Jail After Former NFL RB Accepts Plea Deal in 2022 DUI Case

Former NFL running back Marshawn Lynch has avoided jail time after accepting a plea deal in his 2022 DUI case, according to David Charns of 8 News Now.

Under terms of the plea deal, Lynch's misdemeanor DUI charge will be lowered to reckless driving if he "completes DUI school, a victim impact panel, an alcohol evaluation, 200 hours of community service and stays out of trouble for a year, documents said," per Charns.

Lynch was also ordered to pay a $1,140 fine.

"Mr. Lynch has not been convicted of any offense at his time," his attorneys, Richard Schonfeld and David Chesnoff, said in a statement.
