MILWAUKEE (AP) -- A hearing for Green Bay Packers defensive lineman Johnny Jolly in Houston has been rescheduled for Aug. 27.
Jolly appeared in court Tuesday to deal with a felony drug possession charge. A criminal complaint says he had at least 200 grams of codeine when he was arrested earlier this month.
A court official tells the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel that Jolly's attorney asked for the hearing to be rescheduled.
The official says the 25-year-old Jolly was given a curfew and ordered to submit to drug testing.
A person who answered the phone at the office of Jolly's Houston attorney Brian Overstreet says he has no comment on the hearing.
Jolly attended high school in Houston and played for Texas A&M. He was selected by the Packers in the sixth round of the 2006 NFL draft.
