#Derrius Guice in trouble beyond domestic violence arrest

The dramatic fall of former Washington Football Team running back Derrius Guice continued Monday, when it was revealed he had been busted for reckless driving in June.

Guice’s latest run-in with the law to surface was first reported by TMZ and comes less than two weeks after the 23-year-old was arrested on a slew of domestic violence-related charges, which led to his release from the team.

Guice was spotted driving 95 mph in a 55 mph zone near Dulles International Airport in Virginia and was cited for misdemeanor reckless driving, according to the report. He is slated to appear in court in September, around the same time Washington is scheduled to kick off the season without him.

A 2018 second-round pick whose once-promising career has been stymied by injuries, Guice earlier this month was arrested on one count of strangulation, three counts of assault and battery and one count of destruction of property, according to the Associated Press.

Guice allegedly attacked his girlfriend three times earlier this year, including an incident in which he “strangled her until she was unconscious,” according to court documents.

The former LSU standout turned himself in and was released on $10,000 bond, and has since denied the domestic violence charges through a lawyer.

He was released by Washington shortly after his arrest, while in the middle of a four-year rookie deal that guaranteed him $1.9 million at signing. Guice subsequently went unclaimed on waivers and is now a free agent, although it is unlikely a team will sign him until his legal issues are resolved.

Guice, who showed flashes on the field, including a two-touchdown, 129-yard rushing performance in a November win against Carolina, likely would have battled for the starting job in Washington alongside Adrian Peterson, Peyton Barber, J.D. McKissic, Antonio Gibson and Bryce Love.
