49ers linebacker Aldon Smith finally learned his fate from the league.
Smith has been suspended the first nine games of the season for violating the league's personal conduct policy.
Smith was sentenced to 11 days to a work release in Santa Clara, Calif. for his Sept. 2013 drunk driving arrest. It was his second drunk driving arrest since entering the league in 2011. Smith missed five days last season when he entered a substance abuse treatment facility.
Smith also faced felony gun charges, but they were reduced to misdemeanors. Smith was arrested in April for allegedly making a fake bomb threat. Los Angeles City Attorney's office declined to press charges.
Smith will be eligible to return to the 49ers' active roster on Nov. 10 following the team's Nov. 9 game against New Orleans. He will make his first regular season game appearance against the Giants in New York on Nov. 16.
