Court personnel just returned saying neither fmr. @Eagles player Josh Huff not his attorney are here. Unsure what's next...

After his arrest, Huff told the media, "I'm a professional athlete, what professional athlete don't have a gun? I have a wife and I have a son. My job is to protect them at all costs. My job is to protect myself as well."
Huff was later released by the Eagles and later signed by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to their practice squad.
He issued an apology for the incident after his release.
