Member Center:
Tennessee Titans' wide receiver Brandon Jones will be on probation for the next six months for bringing a loaded gun to Nashville International Airport.
Security found the loaded .32.caliber handgun in one of Jones' bags in June.
He was charged with unlawful possession of a firearm, a misdemeanor.
Jones said that it was an oversight and he forgot the weapon was in his bag.
Monday morning, he accepted a conditional guilty plea.
Under the deal he will have to pay a $500 fine plus court costs and he will be under supervised probation.
He will also have to forfeit the weapon.
"This is the last time he'd ever violate the law in any respect," said attorney David Raybin. "He's very regretful that it happened and he's going to go out there and play football and put this behind him."
Jones did have a permit and license for the handgun.
He will meet with a probation officer for the next six month and is scheduled to return to court on November 14.
