Patriots RB marijuana charge has been dropped; After completing 50 hours of community service

blountA district judge near Pittsburgh last month told Lagarrette Blount the charge would go away if the player completed 50 hours of community service by Feb. 4.

Blount’s Pittsburgh-based attorney, Casey White, says he notified the court Friday that Blount had satisfied the requirement by working with a group called Urban Achievers in Boston. The group’s website says it works to improve ”the academic and social outcomes of children living in under-served and under-resourced communities.”

Blount won’t have to appear in court near Pittsburgh next week and can now concentrate on Sunday’s Super Bowl against the Seattle Seahawks.
