Tennessee Titans receiver Kenny Britt has pleaded not guilty to three disorderly person charges stemming from a June arrest in New Jersey.

Hoboken police had suspected Britt was carrying a marijuana cigar.

Britt entered his plea Tuesday in Hoboken Municipal Court. He declined comment.

A judge set a Sept. 20 trial date.

The former Rutgers star has had a series of recent legal difficulties.

Britt pleaded guilty last month to violations related to a speeding arrest in his hometown of Bayonne.

He surrendered June 29 to Tennessee authorities on warrants alleging he provided inaccurate information on driver's license applications.

A man filed a civil lawsuit against Britt on June 27 seeking damages from a Nashville bar fight.
