P.J. Williams

Saints cornerback P.J. Williams was jailed on accusations of driving while drunk in New Orleans early Wednesday, reports The Advocate.

New Orleans police said officers on the Crescent City Connection saw Williams, 25, speed at 80 miles per hour when the limit was 50 mph, use a traffic lane improperly, and fail to signal a turn. The officers stopped him at the corner of Camp Street and Andrew Higgins Boulevard, next to the National World War II Museum in the Central Business District; and he refused to submit to take the blood-alcohol content test commonly referred to as the Breathalyzer, police said.

in 2014, Williams while at Florida Sate faced a suspicion of drunken or dangerous driving. He reportedly drove his car into an oncoming car, totaled both vehicles and fled.

Williams becomes a free agent this March.
