WESTMINSTER, Md. (AP) -Donte’ Stallworth is playing professional football again for the first time since December 2008.
The new Baltimore Ravens wide receiver donned shoulder pads on Friday, his first action since pleading guilty to DUI manslaughter last year.
In an interview with The Associated Press, Stallworth says that he intends to “move forward” and “try to continue my life as a I know it.”
In March 2009, the former Cleveland Browns standout was driving in Florida when his car struck and killed 59-year-old Mario Reyes. Stallworth served 24 days in jail and was suspended by the NFL for the entire 2009 season.
Stallworth says he will never forget what happened, but hopes be remembered for something other than what he termed “the situation.”
