Titans cornerback L'Jarius Sneed indicted in Texas for failing to report an
aggravated assault
DALLAS (AP) --- Tennessee Titans cornerback L'Jarius Sneed has been indicted in
Texas on a misdemeanor charge of failing to report an aggravated assault to law
enforcement over an alleged shooting that happened last year in suburban
Dallas, according to court records.
Sneed, 28, was indicted by a Dallas County grand jury on Tuesday for failing to
report a felony. The indictment does not include details of the alleged
incident, but says it took place on Dec. 6, 2024, the same day that two men
alleged in a civil lawsuit that they were shot at from a Lamborghini Urus that
Sneed and another man, Tekonzae Williams, were in.
Williams was indicted Tuesday on a charge of aggravated assault with a deadly
weapon. Court records did not list an attorney for Williams.
The Titans said in a statement that they were aware of the "legal matter" with
Sneed and are in contact with NFL security per league protocol. The statement
says the team had no further comment. Sneed's agent, Jason Katz, said he had no
comment.
The lawsuit against Sneed and Williams, which seeks at least $1 million in
damages, was filed by Christian Nshimiyimana and Avi Ahmed, who say they were
sitting in a Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon on a vehicle dealer lot in Carrollton when
they were shot at. The lawsuit says that neither Nshimiyimana nor Ahmed
recognized the two-time Super Bowl champion or Williams and said they didn't
think they had ever interacted with them previously.
No people were hit by bullets fired from the Lamborghini Urus. The lawsuit says
bullets did hit the Mercedes-Benz as well as a building.
Sneed was placed on injured reserve last month with a quadricep injury. It's
the second straight season the Titans have put him on injured reserve. He
played only five games in 2024 after Tennessee traded with Kansas City for him,
giving Sneed a contract that made him the NFL's fifth-highest-paid cornerback
at the time.
Sneed was drafted from Louisiana Tech University in the fourth round in 2020 by
Kansas City. He won back-to-back Super Bowls with the Chiefs in 2022 and 2023.
