Ricky Williams spent the night in jail on Tuesday evening after being pulled over in a traffic stop in Austin, Texas.
KXAN in Austin reports the news on the former Heisman Trophy winner, who was stopped for not having a rear license plate. During the stop, the police officer learned Williams had two outstanding traffic warrants, so he was taken to jail.
KXAN says Williams spent the night in jail and was released Wednesday afternoon after paying a fine.
Williams was involved in an incident in January when police were called following a report of a suspicious person nearby a hotel in Tyler, Texas. The former Longhorns running back was in town for the Earl Campbell Award ceremony and was not arrested because he had not done anything wrong.
Williams played in the NFL for 11 seasons and was the league’s leading rusher in 2002.
