New York Jets tight end Chris Herndon faces a likely NFL suspension after pleading guilty Wednesday to driving while intoxicated, a Rockaway, New Jersey court source confirmed.
Herndon, who made an appearance in court, was arrested June 2 after he was involved in a two-car crash about 20 minutes from the Jets' facility.
According to the NFL's substance-abuse policy, Herndon could be suspended two games for a first offense. He could be subject to additional discipline if the commissioner determines there were aggravating circumstances, including extreme intoxication, property damage or serious injury to the player or another party.
