Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Stevens hasn't been suspended for his second drunk-driving arrest since entering the league. He pleaded guilty to the lesser charge of reckless driving in 2003. He could face disciplinary action from the league, and if convicted of extreme DUI in Arizona he would face a mandatory 30-day jail sentence, no more than 20 of which could be suspended. That means 10 days in lockup. ... For the record, Stevens' blood-alcohol content was measured at .204 in Arizona, which is more than twice the legal limit. The test occurred about two and a half hours after he was pulled over.
