Josh Jacobs has officially put his January car accident in Las Vegas behind him … the NFL star’s lawyers say he’s no longer facing any legal drama after he paid a fine and completed community service.
The 23-year-old Raiders star running back was staring down big-time trouble after he crashed his 6-figure Acura NSX on Jan. 4 at around 4:42 AM near the Vegas airport.
Cops had initially arrested him and believed he was drunk behind the wheel before the wreck.
But, prosecutors say evidence showed his blood-alcohol level was below the legal limit … and only hit him with a misdemeanor count of Duty of Driver to Decrease Speed Under Certain Circumstances over the incident.
Jacobs’ attorneys told the Associated Press Josh closed out the case Monday by paying a $500 fine and mentoring at a Boys & Girls Club.
As for the injuries Josh suffered in the accident … they appear to be going away as well — the running back posted a picture of his face just a few weeks ago, and the gash on his forehead is clearly healing nicely.
Jacobs is one of the best running backs in the NFL … he’s rushed for 2,215 yards and 19 TDs in his first two seasons with the Raiders.
