NFL: The Dallas Cowboys are heading into a 2023 season with sky-high expectations. After finishing 12-5 last year, the Cowboys had an unfortunate end to their season losing to the San Francisco 49ers in the playoffs. Going into 2023, the Cowboys and their fans expect to be right back in Super Bowl conversations. They are hoping their 2023 draft class helps with those aspirations, however, one is going to have to get through a legal battle first.
Dallas Cowboys 2022 Second Round Draft Pick Sam Williams Arrested On Weapon And Marijuana Charges (NFL)
Cowboys defensive end Sam Williams was arrested Sunday on charges of possession of a controlled substance and unlawful carrying of a weapon, according to Frisco Police.
The Cowboys arrived back in Texas early Sunday morning after a preseason game against the Seattle Seahawks. Williams was arrested later that day. Under the NFL’s personal conduct policy, Williams is subject to a fine or suspension for the incident.
According to police, the controlled substance charge is for another substance — not for possession of marijuana — and is a state jail felony. The unlawful carrying of a weapon is a Class A misdemeanor. Williams posted a total bond of $1,500, according to online records on a later date and was released.
This Isn’t Sam Williams’ First Incident With The Police As A Member Of The Cowboys
In December of 2022, Williams was involved in an accident not far from the team’s practice facility in which his car was totaled. A month later, he was cited for misdemeanor reckless driving and, according to Plano Police, was driving close to 100 mph in a 55 mph zone and weaving through traffic before the accident.
Williams and the driver of the other car in the accident were not seriously injured, although he did miss a game while in the concussion protocol.
