Ole Miss football received news that linebacker Sam Williams will return to the field this fall after his sexual battery charges were dropped on Tuesday. He started practicing with the team again on Sunday. "With no pending charges, Sam Williams has retu rned to football activities," Ole Miss Athletics said. "We defer to his legal council on questions regarding his case." In July, the Ole Miss linebacker and defensive lineman was arrested for sexual battery, according to a police report obtained by the C larion Ledger. The report states that Williams was arrested on the morning of July 24 and was released later that afternoon after paying a $25,000 bond. Head coach Lane Kiffin was asked to speak of the linebacker's return in his weekly press conference. "To my knowledge, Sam had been working out. He wasn't working out with us because he was away from all team activities," Kiffin said. "But we did see him a little bit. We worked him in yesterday, and obviously, he has a ways to go, but you can see why. R eally, that's our first time with him with no spring ball. You can see flashes of why he's shown to be a really good player at times." - Daily Mississippian
