BEREA, Ohio -- Josh Gordon's DWI hearing has been pushed back to November 18, his attorney Trey Fitzhugh told the Associated Press today.

The hearing was originally scheduled for today in Raleigh, N.C., but Gordon was granted a waiver.

Still awaiting word on the appeal of his indefinite drug ban, Gordon was on the practice field Tuesday and participating in individual drills during the 20 minutes or so open to the media.

He was dressed for Saturday night's 33-14 loss to the Rams at FirstEnergy Stadium, but didn't play, in part because of an abdominal strain and in part because the Browns know they're going to have to be without him for awhile.

The immensely talented but troubled wideout was arrested at about 3 a.m. July 5th for driving while impaired in Raleigh, police spokesman Jim Sughrue told cleveland.com.

Gordon's blood-alcohol level was .09, according to the citation obtained by Raleigh NBC-affiliate WNCN, and he admitted to having three drinks mixed with vodka. The legal limit in North Carolina is .08.

Facing a minimum year-long ban from the NFL for failing at least his third drug test, Gordon was stopped for going 50 miles per hour in a 35 miles per hour zone Saturday morning and was arrested for drunk driving as well as cited for speeding.

Sughrue said a DWI in North Carolina means that a driver is "appreciably impaired'' and that his blood-alcohol level was measured scientifically.

Gordon, 23, was taken to Wake County Detention Center, where he was later released on $500 bond.

Browns general manager Ray Farmer, who's made it clear that the club is prepared to move on without Gordon this season, said in a statement, "We are aware of the matter and are disappointed to learn of the situation. We will comment further at the appropriate time.''

It marked the second time since news of his looming suspension broke in early May that Gordon was pulled over by police -- both on holiday weekends. Over Memorial Day weekend, he was stopped for going 74 mph in a 60 zone on Interstate 71, and the Cuyahoga County Sherriff smelled marijuana in the car, a source told cleveland.com. Gordon was not cited for possession during that stop, but one of his three passengers was.
