P.J. Williams' DUI Case Dismissed: Latest Details, Comments and Reaction

Former Florida State cornerback P.J. Williams' DUI case has been dismissed after signs of his impairment were not found on video evidence.  

Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network passed along the news Monday from Williams' attorney:

"

Per lawyer Jonathan Simon, the DUI case for Florida State CB PJ Williams has been dismissed. More coming.

Rand Getlin of Yahoo Sports provided more details from the attorney:

Williams, 21, was arrested earlier this month on suspicion of DUI after being pulled over by police. He allegedly refused to take a field sobriety test and was not given a breathalyzer on the scene. Safid Deen and Karl Etters of the Tallahassee Democrat reported Williams mentioned his standing as a former Florida State football player before he was taken to jail.

Williams, speaking with Tom Pelissero of USA Today, recently discussed the DUI arrest:

"

My lawyer is going to wait and release everything after the draft, unfortunately. That'll clear a lot of things up. But I'm being sincere with teams. I'm letting them know that's not the type of player they're getting—a player that's going to be in trouble and bring a lot of negative attention to their program. I tell them it's not going to happen again. 

"

Considered one of the top cornerbacks in the 2015 draft class, Williams made 74 tackles and one interception as a junior. Bleacher Report's Matt Miller ranked him as the seventh-best cornerback and No. 52 overall prospect.

While it's unclear how NFL teams were evaluating him, Williams undoubtedly has some good fortune having the arrest dismissed just days before the draft. Given his openness with teams and overall collegiate production—he was the defensive MVP of the 2014 national championship game—it's possible he could be a late riser heading into Thursday.
