DECATUR, Ala. -- A judge on Friday convicted Dallas Cowboys linebacker Rolando McClain of resisting arrest and disorderly conduct in his Alabama hometown and imposed an 18-day jail term that could interrupt the players bid to restart his career. Municipal Judge Billy Cook convicted McClain on the misdemeanour counts after a non-jury trial that lasted about three hours. McClain was accused of yelling an obscenity at police trying to arrest him during a disturbance in a crowded city park in 2013. McClain wont have to report for his jail sentence until after an appeal is complete in state court. Cook also ordered McClain to pay $1,572 in fines and court costs. Its unclear how long an appeal might take. The judge signed a document stating McClain, 25, was free to leave the state while challenging the conviction. Defence attorney Harvey Steinberg said McClain would head to Cowboys training camp in Oxnard, Calif., within hours of the trial. "My attitude is I think I ran into the only person in the entire state of Alabama that would convict Rolando McClain based on this evidence," said Steinberg. "Unfortunately, it happened to be the judge." The former Alabama Crimson Tide star maintained his innocence and said police arrested the wrong person. Hes been arrested three times in Decatur since 2011. McClain tried to delay the trial so he could attend the start of NFL training camp this week, but a judge refused. The Cowboys acquired the rights to McClain from Baltimore on July 1. He was the eighth overall pick by Oakland in 2010 but hasnt played since 2012. Custom Football Jerseys Throwback .

Its a question many England fans are asking - and struggling to answer - following the countrys 1-1 draw with Russia at Euro 2016. The Tottenham striker was top scorer in the Premier League last season but, rather than aiming to get on the end of corners in Marseille, Kane was delivering them - with mixed success - in Englands tournament opener.Kane took six corners against Russia on Saturday night, with two particularly poor efforts flying over the box, forcing Dele Alli to dash after the ball to keep it in play on the other side of the field. In the Premier League this season, Kane took just seven corners for Tottenham, where Christian Eriksen is the dedicated set-piece specialist. And all seven of those Kane corners were taken short. Kanes corners vs Russia 1 - Overhit. Alli retrieves on other side of pitch. 2 - Finds Smalling. Defender heads over from penalty spot. 3 - Cleared at near post. 4 - Cleared at near post. 5 - Overhit. Russia clear.6 - Short to Lallana. Kane receives the ball back but cross just evades Cahill. However, he was handed corner-kick duty by Roy Hodgson for Englands first Euro 2016 warm-up game against Turkey on May 22 and has continued to take them since.I dont need to apologise for Kane taking a corner, Hodgson said at the time. Especially if youve got a player with his quality striking a ball and no one else in the team who comes up to that level of striking a ball.Its a move Sky Sports pundit Jamie Redknapp is critical of. The former Liverpool captain - an expert at striking a dead ball during his playing days - says the responsibility should fall to an England midfielder, so Kane can concentrate on scoring himself. We need Kane in the box. To have our best striker taking corners doesnt make any sense. Jamie Redknapp Were allowing one of our best players to take corners - and its not good news. I cant understand it, he told Sky Sports News HQs Euro Verdict.Weve got some very good technical players - Alli, Wayne Rooney - so why are we letting Harry Kane take them? He can deliver a good ball and he has that cross where it dips into the box, but Im sure most players can do that. We need Kane in the box. To have our best striker taking corners doesnt make any sense.Ray Wilkins, a former set-piece taker for England, was equally confused by the tactic.It baffles the life out of me, he said. If youre a midfield player playing at international level and you cant kick a ball 40 yards, unopposed, and stick it in an area of 10 yards at a height where you have an opportunity to score, you shouldnt really be playing. Kane only took seven corners for Tottenham all season - and all were short passes Indeed, in the past two Premier League seasons Kane has scored 10 times from set-piece situations (not including his one goal direct from a free-kick) and, in 2015/16, no player scored more goals from inside the box. All the indicators are hed be a more than useful presence in the opposition box for corner-kick routines.However, the bare facts of his corner-taking at Euro 2016 make for interesting reading: no player has completed more successful corners so far in the tournament and Kanes corner-kick stats are far more impressive than Dimitri Payets efforts for France against Romania.
