Da'Rick Rogers sentenced to one day in jail, six months' probation

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Da'Rick Rogers was sentenced to one day in jail and six months of probation to resolve a 2014 DUI case.

He pleaded guilty as part of a plea agreement.

Rogers, signed by the Chiefs as a free agent at the end of last season, is among a group of candidates hoping for a roster spot as a backup.

He is a talented player who in 2011 led the SEC in receptions with 67 catches and was second in yards (1,040) and touchdowns (nine) while with Tennessee. But he was later thrown off the team for disciplinary problems and he finished his collegiate career at Tennessee Tech.

He signed with the Buffalo Bills as an undrafted free agent in 2013 but was cut at the end of training camp. He later joined the Indianapolis Colts, where he caught 13 passes that season. He had a 46-yard catch that year in a playoff win over the Chiefs.

He was released by the Colts last year after the DUI arrest.
