Donovan McNabb Sentenced in DUI Trial: Latest Details and Comments

Former NFL quarterback Donovan McNabb was sentenced Friday to 18 days in jail as part of his punishment after pleading guilty to DUI in relation to a June arrest in Arizona.

TMZ Sports reported McNabb will be subject to 72 days of home detention, must complete 30 hours of community service and has to pay a fine of more than $6,300 in addition to the jail time. He'll also go through counseling and will be on unsupervised probation throughout the duration of the sentence.

Jim Walsh of the Arizona Republic reported the June incident began when the former member of the Philadelphia Eagles, Washington Redskins and Minnesota Vikings rear-ended another vehicle. There were no injuries, but officers felt he was driving impaired.

McNabb stated he was sick at the time and had been taking cough syrup before opening his mouth to reveal cough drops.

He was put through a battery of tests, and an officer determined he showed six signs of impairment, including an inability to stand "without visibly swaying back and forth and side to side in in a rotational pattern," according to Walsh.

Police arrested McNabb and cited him on suspicion of DUI. The TMZ Sports report notes later tests showed his blood alcohol level was .17, more than double the legal limit.

McNabb previously served one day in jail for a December 2013 DUI arrest.

Brian Stelter of CNN reported in July that the 38-year-old analyst was taken off the air by both Fox Sports and NBC Sports after his latest arrest.

McNabb's attorney, Thomas Connelly, told TMZ Sports his client must report to jail by the end of November under "work release" conditions, in which he'll serve his time at night and be free during the day.
