It’s been nearly two years since Michael Bennett allegedly pushed an elderly worker at NRG Stadium following Super Bowl LI, but Harris County prosecutors once again pushed back a court date that could have decided if the Eagles defensive end would go to trial on a felony charge.
The arraignment or “setting” — as Bennett attorney Rusty Hardin labeled it — is set for Sept. 18. Bennett, who surrendered to authorities in March after he was charged, won’t be required to attend. The original setting was scheduled for April 28 and has now been pushed back four times, the most recent on Tuesday.
