Green Bay Packers linebacker Nick Barnett (pictured) entered a pair of not guilty pleas on charges of disorderly conduct in Outagamie County Circuit Court.
The charges stem from a June incident at an Appleton Bar. Both misdemeanor charges carry a maximum sentence of 90 days in jail or a $1,000 fine each.
Barnett said his profile as an NFL player factored in the charges being filed against him.
A pretrial hearing is scheduled to take place in March.
