Michigan defensive tackle Mazi Smith was sentenced to 12 months of probation Thursday following the misdemeanor gun charge he received in December.
During his court appearance in Ann Arbor’s 15th District Court on Thursday, Smith owned up to his mistakes and took responsibility for his actions, per the Detroit Free Press.
The misdemeanor gun charge occurred Oct. 7 when Smith was pulled over for speeding in Ann Arbor, Mich., while he was found to be concealing a weapon without a license. At first, Smith was charged with a felony, but the charges were later changed to a misdemeanor following a plea deal in December.
