Simmons/NewsLawrence Taylor was looking at a possible four years in prison before pleading guilty to patronizing a prostitute and sexual misconduct.

 

Former football great Lawrence Taylor scored a no-jail deal Thursday, pleading guilty to patronizing a prostitute and sexual misconduct in exchange for six years probation.

He was looking at a trial for statutory rape - and a possible four years in prison - when he copped to the two misdemeanors.

Taylor admitted he paid $300 to have sex with a 16-year-old runaway in a Rockland County hotel room - but said he didn't know her real age.

"She told me she's 19, but I don't know," Taylor said.

Taylor, 51, will have register as a sex offender, but there will be a hearing to determine what level.

"He's basically exonerated," lawyer Arthur Aidala said of the former Super Bowl hero.
