Damien Williams has been arrested for battery of a pregnant woman

Williams briefly suited up for the Arizona Cardinals in 2023. He is a former undrafted free agent that the Dolphins signed after the draft in 2014, and he spent a little bit of time there.

He is perhaps best known for his time with the Kansas City Chiefs, where he was instrumental in their Super Bowl LIV win over the San Francisco 49ers. He scored multiple times and had a good case for winning MVP of the game.

He has since bounced around the league, but his NFL future may be concluded after this arrest as well as his recent inability to find a job with a team.
