Prosecutor: Lions' Jameson Williams won't face charges after review

DETROIT -- No legal action will be issued against Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams stemming from his traffic stop on Oct. 8, Wayne County prosecutors said.

After reviewing a warrant request on a concealed weapons charge, the Wayne County Prosecutor's office concluded that the warrant was denied because the case law is silent regarding the specific issue, and the legislative intent of the Concealed Pistol License (CPL) statute does not support charges under these facts.

Prosecutor Kym Worthy released a statement, saying that they looked at the case thoroughly and objectively, despite Williams' NFL status.
