Brown's plea deal hearing postponed to October 28

Former NFL receiver Antonio Brown arrived in court on Wednesday ready to resolve an attempted murder charge with a no-contest plea to aggravated assault. However, the hearing was delayed because the judge was in the middle of a different trial. biznow.biz

Brown's attorney, Mark Eiglarsh, called the postponement a setback but expressed cautious optimism that the judge will ultimately approve the deal. The agreement would prevent Brown from being regarded as a convicted felon despite his no-contest plea to a felony. Brown faced up to 30 years in prison if convicted of the attempted murder charge stemming from a May 2025 incident at a Miami celebrity boxing match.
