On Wednesday, Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Justin Layne reportedly reached a plea deal to resolve charges stemming from a traffic stop in Ohio last month where authorities said they found a loaded gun in his car. On Thursday, Kevin Colbert was asked about Layne’s status with the team stemming from that incident during his interview on 93.7 The Fan.
“Yeah, I mean, that’s a league discipline issue,” Colbert said. “You know, a misdemeanor’s a misdemeanor, but any type of misdemeanor is still obviously something that we don’t approve of or, you know, we certainly are disappointed. I hope he’s learned from it and I hope he’s ready to move on because, you know, again, the legal system will take care of itself as it did.
