An arrest warrant against New York Jets wide receiver Robby Anderson has been rescinded, multiple media outlets reported Thursday.

A warrant had been issued Wednesday for Anderson after missing a court date that stemmed from a January arrest in Broward County, Fla. But Anderson's attorney, Ed O'Donnell, said that he and Anderson had not been notified of the court date.

O'Donnell told Mike Garafolo of NFL Media that the warrant has been rescinded and that it was the result of a clerical error.

Anderson is now scheduled for a July 19 appearance in court regarding a charge of reckless driving from January.

Anderson, 25, was arrested in Sunrise, Fla., after allegedly driving 105 mph in a 45-mph zone and running two red lights while speeding away from police.

Anderson initially faced a felony charge of threatening harm to a public servant or family, but that charge was dropped in early April.

Anderson is also awaiting an August trial for his participation in an alleged altercation at a Miami music festival last year.

Anderson led the Jets in receiving last season, catching 63 passes for 941 yards and seven touchdowns.
