Sheldon Richardson's Missouri court case continued

ST. LOUIS (AP) — A Missouri judge has continued until next month the criminal case against New York Jets defensive lineman Sheldon Richardson, accused of resisting arrest and traffic counts for a summer police chase in suburban St. Louis.

A court hearing was cancelled Monday. Richardson was not there. St. Charles County Associate Circuit Judge Norman Steimel III continued the case until Nov. 9.

Richardson sat out the first four games this season as part of a suspension for violating the NFL's substance abuse policy.

The former University of Missouri star lives in O'Fallon, Missouri, in the offseason.
