According to Matt Maiocco of CSNBayArea.com, Smith was also charged with possession of marijuana in addition to suspicion of DUI. He was arrested at 7 a.m., which means he was ostensibly on his way to work when he crashed his car.
Earlier today, Jay Glazer of FOX said that 49ers linebacker Aldon Smith could be headed to rehab after a Friday arrest for suspicion of DUI.
The “could” has become a “will.”
Per a league source, the final determination will be made after today’s game, but Smith “will be going sooner than later.”
Smith now has a pair of alcohol-related incidents during his NFL career, which began as a top-10 pick in 2011.
The 49ers have five games until their bye. They face the Rams on Thursday night, then they have Sunday games against the Texans, Cardinals, Titans, and Jaguars.
Tune in to NBC’s Football Night in America at 7:00 p.m. ET for more on Smith from Peter King of TheMMQB.com.
