TAMPA, Fla. -- Buccaneers rookie receiver Mike Williams was arrested and charged with driving under the influence early Friday morning, according to Hillsborough County Jail records.
Williams' blood alcohol level was below the state limit of .08, but a sheriff's department spokesman told the St. Petersburg Times that Williams was seen weaving in traffic. He also submitted to a urine test, which can be requested if the officer suspects a driver is under the influence of something other than alcohol, the spokesman said.
Williams' blood alcohol levels were .065 and .061 in two different tests. He was released on bond Friday morning.
"We are in the process of gathering all the facts," Buccaneers general manager Mark Dominik said in a statement released by the team. "Mike has been very cooperative."
A team official said Williams will travel with the team and is expected to start Sunday at San Francisco.
A fourth-round draft pick out of Syracuse, Williams quickly emerged as Tampa Bay's top wide receiver from the start of the season. He has 40 catches for 627 yards and five touchdowns.
