Broncos' Marshall receives a year of probation after guilty plea

Broncos receiver Brandon Marshall pleaded guilty to a lesser charge stemming from his arrest last year on suspicion of driving under the influence. He was given one year of probation.

A Denver County Court clerk said Marshall pled to a lesser charge during a disposition hearing Friday, was found guilty of driving while ability impaired and also received 24 hours of community service.

Marshall was arrested Oct. 22. In December, he entered a plea of not guilty. He had a trial set for Tuesday.

Marshall will play for the first time this season Sunday after serving a one-game suspension for violating the league's conduct policy.
