The Dallas Cowboys are the talk of the NFL town following the latest updates coming out of the state of Texas. Jerry Jones and his Cowboys have yet another headache to resolve as the NFL regular season keeps creeping closer and closer. After an underwhelming end to the 2022 season, they’d have hoped for a better start to the new season in 2023.
With one of their young stars facing arrest after another doze of controversy, the Cowboys can only hope for a decent start to the new season. Despite the news and stories flying around, Jones has dealt with the situation admirably, and somewhat hilariously.

With one of his young stars seemingly on the hook of the law, Jones has taken a different approach with the media. While many owners try to avoid the news outlet in hopes of mitigating the damage, Jones has decided to tackle them head first. In one of the latest conversations with the media, Jones reflects on the actions of his Offensive LB.
In a post uploaded by Ari Meirov on Twitter, the fans are treated to a clip of Texan guts and humor. When asked how he conjugates the entire situation after last year’s incident, Jones responds, “This sounds a little hollow, but he does and is maturing.” He’d further offer a humorous response in reference to last year’s incident and remarked, “What was he going, 66 mph?….he is 34 mph less than this year…. 98 to 66, so that’s an improvement.”

While Jones may have offered the reporters a moment to chuckle amidst the current controversies surrounding his player. It doesn’t erode the fact that Williams continues to be on the radar of law enforcement, in consecutive years.

Sam Williams, a 2nd year NFL OLB, faces a second arrest in as many years. After being involved in a car crash and a speeding row last year, he is back in the news. Following the latest round of news and reports, it is revealed that he is being arrested on multiple charges. Although much of the charges have yet to be substantially commented upon. The allegations have forced the Cowboys to refrain from making a comment.
Sam Williams has been back with the team for the pre-season and was part of the match against the Seahawks. While the situation continues to be in a state of limbo, it hasn’t yet fully died down for either party to move on comfortably without needing to look over their shoulder. Jones may have handled the media with a level of panache rarely seen, but he and his team will surely be all over the situation in the background.
