EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- New York Giants defensive tackle Keith Hamilton apologized on Monday for embarrassing the team with his arrest last month on charges of possessing cocaine and marijuana.
"I'll have my day in court," Hamilton said after the first practice session of the team's veteran minicamp.
Hamilton, a 12-year veteran who is rehabilitating from a torn right Achilles' tendon that sidelined him most of last season, was stopped on May 22 for having tinted windows on his vehicle, according to police reports.
After a search of his car, Hamilton was charged with possession of an undetermined amount of cocaine, possession of less than 50 grams of marijuana, possession of drug paraphernalia, possession of a controlled dangerous substance in a motor vehicle and consumption of alcohol in a motor vehicle.
Hamilton, 32, was released on his own recognizance. He faces a court date in Morris County, probably sometime in July, although Hamilton did not know for sure Monday.
