TMZ Sports notes that Brown’s initial plan was to plead not guilty, but he thought better of it.

Arizona law says that anything more than 20 mph over a posted speed limit is criminal speeding. It’s a misdemeanor.

The 25-year-old had 67 catches for 709 yards and three touchdowns for Arizona this year.
