Sep 28, 2011 – Former Green Bay Packers cornerback Brandon Underwood is currently a free agent. However if he does sign with a team, he’ll have to sit out two games now that he has been suspended by the NFL for violating the league’s personal-conduct policy.

Underwood has a long list of legal and off-the-field issues that he can add this to.

The former Packers sixth-round draft pick from the University of Cincinnat has had repeated run-ins with the law over domestic violence concerns with his wife, including a dispute with his wife after the Packers’ Super Bowl ring ceremony on June 16.

Underwood was released by the Packers on September 3rd when the off-field incidents became too much for them to handle.

“I kind of felt it coming, but at the same time … ,” Underwood said. “With the off-the-field issues, that’s something that always factors into things…Just with everything I had happen in the last couple years, it’s not a bad idea for me to get a fresh start.”

That fresh start will just start a little later than he’d hoped.

Green Bay Packers cornerback Brandon Underwood pleaded not guilty to a count of disorderly conduct Friday after being charged in an incident with his wife the night the team got their Super Bowl rings last month.

Authorities allege the 25-year-old Underwood ripped a necklace off his wife, Brandie, and pushed her to the ground at their home following the June 16 ring ceremony.

Brandie Underwood has said the incident has been blown out of proportion and that’s she’s never been afraid of her husband even though she filed for divorce in May. She said earlier this month they are still living together and receiving counselling.

Underwood is scheduled to face trial on Sept. 26.

The Packers are aware of the incident, but have declined comment.

Gotta run!.
