Seattle Seahawks quarterback Trevone Boykin plead no contest
Thursday to a misdemeanor charge of resisting arrest stemming
from an incident last year, the Bexar County (Texas) District
Attorney's Office confirmed to NFL Media.

As part of his plea agreement, Boykin was sentenced to a year of
probation and must attend alcohol awareness and anger management
classes as part of the terms of his probation. In addition, he
was ordered to pay a $1,500 fine, submit an apology letter to
the arresting officer and complete 80 hours of community service.

Boykin was arrested in San Antonio on the morning of Dec. 31 for
allegedly striking a patrol officer and being involved in a bar
fight, the Associated Press reported. He posted a $5,000 bond
and was released from custody the same day.

Boykin was initially facing a potential charge of assaulting a
public servant -- a third-degree felony -- prior to reaching a
plea deal with prosecutors.

Following his arrest, TCU coach Gary Patterson held him out of
the Alamo Bowl for violating team rules. He was signed by the
Seahawks in April after going undrafted. The Seahawks also
signed quarterback Jake Heaps this offseason.

Seahawks training camp opens July 30.
