Tennessee Titans assistant coach Chuck Cecil could face league punishment after pleading guilty to reckless driving Monday.
Paul Kuharsky of the Tennessean reports that league spokesman Greg Aiello said NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell could discipline Cecil. The NFL says it holds coaches and team staffs to higher standards of personal conduct than players.
Cecil, who was arrested and charged with drunken driving about 12 hours before the Titans played the Colts in September, entered the guilty plea Monday. He was sentenced to 24 hours in jail, six months probation, a $500 fine and alcohol safety classes.
Cecil played five seasons with the Green Bay Packers, one with the Phoenix Cardinals and one with the Houston Oilers. Cecil is best known to most fans for a Sports Illustrated cover that asked whether he was “too vicious for the NFL.”
