TAMPA, Fla. -- Prosecutors have dropped a DUI charge filed in November against Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie receiver Mike Williams.
The Hillsborough County State Attorney's office concluded Friday it would not prosecute Williams after results of a urine test showed the athlete had no drugs in his system when he was arrested Nov. 19 after his black Escalade was spotted weaving in and out of traffic around 2:30 a.m.
A breathalyzer test found Williams had a 0.065 blood-alcohol level, which is below Florida's 0.08 percent legal limit.
However, county sheriff's deputies said the player did not pass a field-sobriety test and his eyes were glassy and he smelled like alcohol when they pulled him over.
Prosecutors say the charge was dropped on the "totality" of evidence.
