Who is that masked man? It took a few years for the authorities to figure that out, but they finally got their man on Thursday. Former NFL & XFL linebacker Antwione Williams has been arrested for blitzing the Capitol building with many others on that dark day in America on January 6th 2021. Williams was originally drafted by the Detroit Lions back in 2016 in the 5th round of the NFL draft from Georgia Southern University. Williams played for the Washington Defenders in the XFL in 2020 during which the league’s season was cut short by the pandemic. Williams was out of the game in 2021 but demonstrated his attack on the quarterback with Capitol Police as he has been charged with two felonies as authorities put the bracelets on him at his home in Savanna, Georgia.

The Pro Donald Trump rally happened from the election results when Joe Biden won. Trump called the election rigged and his words created a hostile situation on January 6th with a riot that caused 1.5 million in damages. The authorities have arrested over 1500 people in connection in that dark winter day in the nation’s capital. Close to 600 people have been charged with assaulting and impeding law officials that day. Antwione Williams now is 31 years of age and is charged with assaulting, resisting, and impeding Capitol police officers. They got Williams on obstruction of Law Enforcement Duties. Then they added three misdemeanors to the arrest report. Entering and remaining on restricted grounds which is the Capitol building. This in addition to Disorderly Conduct and Acts of Physical Violence.

Imagine being a Police officer and having an out of control football player in your grill. Being an officer you are trained to handle specimens bigger than you are. In a riot with so many angered people, it’s hard to keep focus on just one assailant. Antwione Williams wearing a Covid mask covering up his face and a hat covering up his head, confronted the police and over powered them at the perimeter line. Sounds like a football game with Williams being a line backer getting through the offensive line to get to the quarterback. Williams grabbed a bike rack from an officer who was trying to clear an area. One play, Williams swatted a riot control spray out of the hand of an officer. Just like punching the ball out of a running back that is getting by you. He also struck an officer in the head in a powerful arm motion. That would draw a flag in any football game. When it was all over I’m sure the line backer thought he got away home free.

With cameras everywhere now a days, you wonder why people do stupid things knowing they are being recorded. The FBI are like dogs chewing on a bone. They will find you looking under every rock on earth until their suspect pays the price. In 2022 the FBI got a tip about Antwione Williams which could have been a Packers fan. They called the tip line and the FBI started to put things together. In 2023 the FBI interviewed Williams and noticed a red key fob hanging from his belt buckle like the one in the pictures and footage they had of the January 6th riots.

The smoking gun. Add a credit card statement that Williams; car was parked about ten minutes away from the Capitol building at Metro Station. Shake down, break down, and busted.

You have to be a solid football player to play the game at the College level. Then to be drafted by an NFL team you obviously had elevated your game. Antwione Williams would have one year in the NFL with the Lions. In 14 games he made 3 starts in the 2016 season. He tallied up 17 solo tackles which two of them were for a loss. He had one QB hit that season. After that season for whatever reason, he never got back in an NFL game. He tried to latch on with the Vikings and Panthers, but he just could not make it on the team’s roster. In 2020 he played for the DC Defenders of the XFL. He only played in 3 games as he tallied up 3 solo tackles. He has a college education to fall back on. Everyone has a boiling point in a moment that is not their real self. That one moment or multiple moments in life you want back as you see not the best of yourself as a human being. I’m surprised it took the authorities that long to track him down. The red fob is like the Police chasing a guy wearing shoes that light up in the dark. These types go into the stupidest criminal’s hall of shame. Now that Donald Trump will be back in the White House will Williams get a pardon from the rich aristocrat? Or will all these Trump followers end up being chumps? Following the flock off the cliff. Nobody in politics is that important to serve jail time over. Some of these rioters surly got caught up in the heat of the moment. Some of those people were bat shit crazy, pardon my French.
