For his second dui, what a waste of another year for the 26 year old. Things keep getting worse for the Pack
what a dumbass he doesnt learn his lesson after getting cut from the vikings
No , and after his 1st pro bowl last year too
I don't think he has to serve until the offseason.
He doesn't, which in my opinion is the biggest sack of horse about this entire story. I can't stand it when famous people/athletes/politicians/CEO's get preferential treatment from the justice system just because they can afford it.
I wonder if they'd wait for me to use up vacation time from my job in order to serve 90 days?
It's important to note that this sentence stems from the DUI he committed in August that led to his dismissal from the Vikings organization.
GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Green Bay Packers wide receiver Koren Robinson was suspended without pay Tuesday for a minimum of one year for violating the NFL's substance abuse policy.
The league's action came hours after Robinson pleaded not guilty to charges of drunken driving and fleeing police stemming from a high-speed chase in August.
Robinson was taken into custody earlier Tuesday because of a warrant in Blue Earth County for a previous traffic violation. He was released a short time later, after his attorney went to a bank to withdraw $1,000 to post bond.
The more serious charges came when Robinson was with the Minnesota Vikings. His car topped 100 mph as police chased him from St. Peter to the Vikings' training camp headquarters in Mankato on Aug. 15. Police say Robinson's blood-alcohol content was 0.11 percent, above the legal limit of 0.08.
The Vikings cut Robinson, and he signed with the Packers in September.
This month, Robinson was sentenced to three months in jail for violating probation on a separate drunken-driving case in Kirkland, Wash., last year. He plans to serve that sentence after the season.
Robinson already had been suspended for four games for violating the league's substance abuse policy in 2004.
St. Peter is about 57 miles southwest of Minneapolis, and about 10 miles north of Mankato.
