News: DE Sam Williams arrested Sunday on controlled substance, weapons charges

[SteveTheCowboy]

Yes, stupid human beings at that. Unfortunately most of us were young and dumb at one time. These guys are paid handsomely and worshiped, consequently they must uphold a higher standard. Sam had the potential for a break out this year too.

Hmmm....I dunno about a "higher standard"....for an athlete? What makes them different than anyone else? Money? "fame"? Role model? Best of humanity?


Like any human endeavor....faulty humans.

 

[Praxit]

..young dumb kid. No values and understanding of responsibilities. Throw in your a face of the Star.

 

[rambo2]

Why does he need a gun? What could possibly go wrong?

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

This. ^^^^Smoking weed and even owning a gun is not necessarily a problem. Unless you are acting like a fool with both. Which is stupid.

You don’t have to be a “choir boy” to be successful in the NFL. But you can’t be stupid.

Oh you can be stupid. Just can't be caught.

I am sure a ton of stupidity goes unnoticed.

 

[Rayman70]

Geez...for heaven's sake!! smdh

did Jerry do an interview yet on this matter? I expect the word fungible 2 be used many times. As well as the term ********** and yacht,

 

[Sydla]

Idiot.

It's amazing to me that these guys, once they get a NFL paycheck, act like they can get away with anything and do dumb ****.

At least once an offseason we have a bonehead.

Edit Marijuana and a weapon .... lol goodness.

Dallas Cowboys defensive end Sam Williams was arrested by Frisco police Sunday night on charges of possession of a controlled substance and unlawful carrying of a weapon, per a police department spokesperson.
The controlled substance charge, for alleged possession of marijuana, is a low-level state felony and the unlawful carrying of a weapon is a misdemeanor, according to Frisco police. Williams, 24, played in the Cowboys’ 22-14 loss in Seattle on Saturday. He returned with the team early Sunday morning.

The Cowboys declined to comment through a spokesman. The team is aware of the arrest.

Where are all of the people who called me crazy for wanting to use that second rounder on someone else? Travis jones for instance. Hey what do I know lol. I knew this was a mistake. Character issues always come back. Making someone with issues a millionaire usually doesnt cure the issue.

 

[rambo2]

Hopefully, they make it through his rookie contract.

 

[Mr_437]

There’s “lawful” and “unlawful” carrying of both guns and weed. In Texas, possession of marijuana is still (foolishly IMO) illegal. Having a gun in TX is legal but there are stipulations.

I have a couple of friends that are cops in the Dallas area, and they say they don‘t care about getting people with weed possession unless their behavior is so noticeable and reckless, they need to pull them over and find out what’s going on. Like driving at excessive speeds, driving erratically, etc. Obviously, none of us know the whole story.

The key is why was he pulled over, like you stated your cop friends address. I would like to know those stipulations because I thought it was no problem to carry, so to goggle I go.

..someone try to steal your Air Jordy's.

 

[phildadon86]

I am so happy the Cowboys continue to use the second round to draft knuckleheads like this.

Creed Humphrey and Travis Jones could be a part of this roster currently if they stopped taking unnecessary risks on these guys. Just put that into perspective.

And thats only 2 players off of the top of my head. @America's Cowboy Remember when I said this would come back to bite us?

Cut him.

I would think a permit to carry and having the weapon registered are basic law compliance.

 

[Rayman70]

trade his arse.

 

[817Gill]

Will this have league repercussions?

Eh maybe a game, but legal action must run its course first. I assume it’ll be well into the season before any word on that comes.

 

[Carson]

This is the **** that drives me crazy.

This team always finds ways to self implode.

You don’t need a LTC to carry(concealed or open) in Texas anymore. But, if you have been in trouble with the law, that changes. I imagine he wasn’t allowed to own a firearm for some reason or another.

 

[MikeB80]

I don't understand the problem, can't he just tell the police that he plays with Dak Prescott and he will leadership him through this?

You work your tail off growing up. Years of grinding to be the best of the best. You dream of making it to the NFL. And finally. Your dream come true.

Then you do every little avoidable thing to <expletive> it up.

 

[McKDaddy]

seems like between injuries & stupidity another year of futility is on the tracks
