The lawyer for Jets wide receiver Robby Anderson said Wednesday that prosecutors in Miami have a Thursday morning hearing scheduled to drop a felony charge for resisting arrest against his client.

Anderson was arrested and charged with resisting arrest with violence at a music festival in May 2017.

Ed O’Donnell, Anderson’s lawyer, said Anderson is relieved the charges will be dropped.

“He knew all along he didn’t do anything wrong,” O’Donnell said. “Sometimes it takes [justice] a while. My hats off to the state and what they did. They did what they were supposed to do.
