Gale Gilbert, a former quarterback for the Seattle Seahawks, was ordered to perform 240 hours of community service for an attempted sexual assault on a woman he met at a bar.
Superior Court Judge Norman Quinn could have sentenced Gilbert, 26, to at least two months in the King County (Wash.) jail. Quinn, however, granted Gilbert a first-offense waiver, noting that he had no previous felony convictions.
Gilbert, from the University of California, was released by the Seahawks in June after he pleaded guilty to the attempted assault on the 24-year-old woman last summer. The woman reported the incident to authorities only after another woman alleged she had been raped by Gilbert in January.
