Roland McClain Appeals Disorderly Conduct, Resisting Arrest Guilty Verdict, Won't Go To Jail Yet

Dallas Cowboys' Roland McClain won't be going to jail just yet. He is appealing an Alabama judge's guilty verdict of disorderly conduct and resisting arrest. He was sentenced to 18 days in jail, but seeks to overturn that decision.

McClain reported to the Dallas Cowboys' training camp Saturday after being traded from the Baltimore Ravens (via ESPN):

"I'm just taking it for my first day, enjoy my mistakes, enjoy when I do something well. Yesterday I was sitting in a court room not knowing what was going to happen. Today I'm here with the Dallas Cowboys with an opportunity to make a football team and fight for a position."

McClain and his legal team hope to keep him out of jail as they say he didn't break the law (via CBS Sports):

"'I felt like I ran into the only person in the entire state of Alabama who would convict him on this evidence,' McClain's attorney Harvey Steinberg said of Judge Bill Cook."
