Patriots rookie cornerback Joejuan Williams was arrested and is facing drug charges stemming from a traffic stop in Tennessee.
According to Nashville’s NewsChannel 5, Williams, a 22-year-old rookie out of Vanderbilt, was arrested in Cumberland County, Tennessee Friday after allegedly being in possession of an “unnamed controlled substance, prescription drugs and drug paraphernalia” after being stopped for speeding. The native of Nashville was a second-round pick of the Patriots in 2019 draft. He played sparingly during the season in New England’s deep and veteran secondary. He’s expected to be a key piece of the team’s future. Williams is the second Patriots player arrested since the season ended. Julian Edelman was arrested in Beverly Hills earlier this month for misdemeanor vandalism.

New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman was arrested after allegedly jumping on the hood of a car, cited for misdemeanor vandalism and released Saturday night in Beverly Hills, California, Beverly Hills PD public information manager Keith Sterling confirmed to NFL.com.
Edelman, 33, allegedly jumped on to the hood of a Mercedes, causing damage. It is unknown who the car belonged to. Edelman was released on a citation and is due to appear at the Airport Courthouse on April 13. The vandalism took place in the 200 block of N. Beverly Drive. Edelman, who will need offseason surgery on his shoulder and knees, was the most recent Super Bowl MVP, but he and the Patriots were eliminated this postseason in the Wild Card Round by the Titans. Edelman finished his 10th season in the NFL, all with the Patriots, and tallied 100 catches for 1,117 yards and six touchdowns. |
