Detroit defensive tackle Nick Fairley was found not guilty of driving under the influence by a jury in Mobile, Ala.
He was found guilty of reckless driving and ordered to pay a $500 fine.
"I feel great," Fairley told Alabama reporters. "I just want to get this behind me and move forward."
Fairley was driving 100 mph in his Cadillac Escalade when he was pulled over in May 2012. He did not take a Breathalyzer test at the time, and the state trooper on the scene said he had failed field sobriety tests. The trooper said Fairley had admitted to drinking and driving.
During the trial, Fairley's girlfriend at the time, Fatima Alhassan, refuted the statement by the state trooper and said the cup of alcohol was hers and that Fairley had not had a drink in many hours.
Fairley could have faced a two-game suspension if convicted of the DUI.
Fairley is a free agent.
