McDowell (concussion) is facing charges for DUI, resisting arrest and receiving and possession of stolen property, Mike Martindale of The Detroit News reports.
The charges stem from two separate incidents in February and May, and McDowell will stand trial for both cases Thursday. The 23-year-old was let go by the Seahawks in March and never played a down for the team after he sustained a severe brain injury in an ATV accident shortly after being selected in the second round of the 2017 NFL Draft. McDowell recently indicated that he intends to resume his playing career, but he now has both legal and medical problems complicating that endeavor.
