Former Michigan WR Csont'e York pleads guilty to two assault charges

Former Michigan WR Csont'e York pled guilty to two assault charges as part of a plea deal on Monday.

York, who was captured on surveillance video punching a man outside an Ann Arbor, Mich., bar, pled guilty to a charge of aggravated assault and a charge of assault and battery per MLive.com. Because he pled guilty to those two charges, a charge of assault and battery was dropped.

York was dismissed from the Michigan football team in August. He is now enrolled at Toledo.

York punched the man, who lost a tooth and suffered a broken jaw from the punch per the police report, on July 18. Per the report, York said the man was confronting a friend and he became nervous and therefore punched him.

York will be sentenced in October. He could face up to a year in jail on the aggravated assault charge and three months in prison on the assault and battery charge.

He was a three-star recruit in the class of 2013 according to Rivals. He played in one game last season.
