Cowboys' Sam Williams arrested Sunday on weapon and marijuana charges .
Dallas Cowboys defensive end Sam Williams was arrested on Sunday by Frisco police on charges of possession of a controlled substance and unlawful carrying of a weapon, per The Fort Worth Star-Telegram. The controlled substance possession is a low-level felony in the state of Texas while the unlawful carrying of a weapon is a misdemeanor offense, per Frisco Police Department.
Williams recorded two tackles and a sack in Dallas' 22-14 preseason loss at the Seattle Seahawks on Saturday night, and he flew back with the team Sunday morning. The 2022 second-round pick practiced Tuesday night during the Cowboys' first training camp practice back home in Frisco after most of the last few weeks in Oxnard, California.
This latest run-in with the law isn't Williams' first while representing the Silver and Blue. He was part of a two-car accident last December, which led to an arrest warrant. His car was totaled, and both he and the other vehicle's driver spent a short amount of time in the hospital without serious injuries. After Williams suffered a concussion and a neck strain from the crash, the Cowboys held him out of their Week 16 game against the Philadelphia Eagles. Per Plano, Texas police, via The Dallas Morning News, Williams was speeding up to 98 miles per hour in an area where the speed limit was 55 miles per hour, bobbing and weaving through traffic before the collision.
