MIAMI (AP) — Cleveland Browns wide receiver Donte Stallworth, free on bail on a DUI manslaughter charge, has been cleared to travel this week from Miami to Atlanta for a medical visit.

A Miami-Dade County judge on Monday approved Stallworth's request for Thursday's one-day trip. The reason for the visit was not disclosed at a brief hearing, and Stallworth's attorney declined comment.

Stallworth, 28, is charged with driving drunk March 14 when he struck and killed 59-year-old Mario Reyes. Stallworth faces a maximum 15-year prison sentence if convicted. An arraignment hearing is set next week for Stallworth to enter a plea.

Stallworth must submit to random drug and alcohol testing under his bail requirements. Stallworth is free on $200,000 bail.
