The verdict declared Stubblefield was guilty of rape by force, menace or fear, and guilty of using a firearm in commission of the crime.
His attorneys had called the charges ‘absolutely ridiculous’ and said the accusations were motivated by money.
Stubblefield was placed in custody after the verdict was read.
Stubblefield spent seven seasons with the 49ers, three with Washington, and one with the Raiders. He made three Pro Bowls and once was All-Pro.
