Mississippi edge rusher Sam Williams is the Dallas Cowboys' latest second-round pick with an off-field issue, drafted Friday night just a few days after owner Jerry Jones said he was getting more conservative about such choices.
FRISCO, Texas — Mississippi edge rusher Sam Williams is the Dallas Cowboys' latest second-round pick with an off-field issue, drafted Friday night just a few days after owner Jerry Jones said he was getting more conservative about such choices. after losing defensive end Randy Gregory to Denver in free agency when Dallas was confident it could re-sign the 2015 second-rounder.
Joseph's attorney has said his client was an unarmed passenger in the vehicle and “found himself in a situation that escalated without his knowledge or consent.” The NFL is investigating the case under its personal-conduct policy. Jones revisited those thoughts after drafting Williams, saying he felt he didn't have to take as many risks because scrutiny of players makes clubs more aware of off-field issues.
The defensive pick by the Cowboys came after they took Tulsa offensive lineman Tyler Smith in the first round. Dallas drafted South Carolina receiver Jalen Tolbert with the 88th overall pick in the third round. “They're going to get a player that wants to play, wants to win, wants to do his job, wants to go over and beyond,” Williams said. “I'm just ready. I can talk about it, but I'm just ready to show it.”
