49ers Aldon Smith in legal trouble..........again


Oft-troubled linebacker Aldon Smith of the San Francisco 49ers was arrested Thursday night on hit and run, driving under the influence and vandalism charges, according to police in Santa Clara, California.

Smith was booked into the Santa Clara County jail and held on $26,000 bond before his release Friday. Authorities said they would provide more information later Friday morning.

This is the 25-year-old Smith's third arrest on suspicion of drunken driving since entering the league in 2011 as a first-round draft pick out of Missouri.

A 49ers team source told ESPN's Josina Anderson: "He [Smith] was on a track and he was making good decisions. But I'll say one thing, there shouldn't be a rush to judgment. We need to figure out what happened and not go into a instant panic. There is usually much more to a story. Let's not overreact and say his career with the 49ers is over just yet."

==========================

He's a great pass rusher and did put his money where his mouth is by tearing up a nearly $10 million contract and agreeing to instead be paid for performance per game ($300k+), in order to show commitment and gratitude to management/fans for sticking with him.

But, he can't keep his nose clean. I'm interested in how our team is gonna address this situation. Rehab? Another suspension? Cut?

They need to cut him.
