A court has rescheduled the hearing date for a former University of Tennessee football player accused of attempted robbery.

The arraignment hearing for Mike Edwards was moved to Monday. Police said Edwards and former football player Nu'Keese Richardson demanded money from three men at a Pilot gas station last week on Cumberland Avenue.

Edwards, Richardson and fellow teammate Janzen Jackson were arrested a short time later. Richardson and Jackson will also appear in court Monday morning, along with 22-year-old Marie Montmarquet. She is also facing attempted armed robbery and drug charges.

Investigators said they believe Montmarquet was driving the getaway car.
