Antonio Brown Hearing Postponed to October 28

Former NFL receiver Antonio Brown's plea deal hearing has been postponed until October 28, as the presiding judge was in the middle of a different trial.

Brown arrived in court ready to strike a plea deal that would resolve his attempted murder charge with a no-contest plea to aggravated assault. According to his attorney, Mark Eiglarsh, the postponement is a setback as Brown remains on an ankle monitor without closure. sports24.club

The plea offer would prevent jail time and avoid Brown being considered a convicted felon, despite his no-contest plea to a felony. The May 2025 incident occurred at a celebrity boxing match in Miami, where Brown claims he fired shots in self-defense under Florida's 'Stand Your Ground' law.
