San Diego DUI defense lawyers report Cedric Benson was cleared on all charges in Texas today stemming from his spring arrests.

Two grand juries in Travis County returned a no bill on each of Benson's cases meaning he will not go to trial for his May arrest on charges of drunken boating BUI and resisting arrest or his June arrest when he was charged with DUI driving under the influence of alcohol.

"Cedric is grateful to all who have supported him,'' his DUI criminal defense attorney Sam Bassett said in a statement. "It was particularly difficult for him to lose the job that he loved with the Bears. He is eager to have an opportunity to again demonstrate that he is a quality running back who can contribute to a winning team. More importantly, he intends to demonstrate that he is worthy of being a positive role model in his community. He has learned much from this ordeal."

Benson has had tryouts with Detroit and New Orleans, most recently with the Lions, but remains a free agent. www.sandiegodui.com
