Hobbs was arrested at 4 a.m. on Jan. 3, hours after the team’s key Week 17 win over the Indianapolis Colts. According to TMZ Sports, he was found asleep at the wheel of his car in a parking lot exit ramp when cops were called.
The 22-year-old was booked after failing sobriety tests, but the toxicology report showed he was under the legal limit for a DUI charge.
The guilty plea to the lesser charge requires Hobbs to pay a $685 fine and complete 20 hours of community service and a victim impact panel in order to avoid a 30-day jail sentence.
