Terrell Owens’ hearing to determine whether he can become a free agent has been rescheduled for Monday in Philadelphia.
A decision is expected as early as Tuesday.
The case, filed on Owens’ behalf by the NFL Players Association, will be heard by Stephen Burbank of the University of Pennsylvania Law School, with the lawyers appearing in person. The hearing was originally scheduled for Sunday as a conference call.
The standout receiver was prevented from becoming a free agent when the NFL Management Council ruled last week that his agent, David Joseph, failed to void the last two years of his contract with the San Francisco 49ers by a Feb. 21 deadline.
The 49ers then traded Owens to Baltimore for a second-round pick.
