The 24-year-old had just played in the Cowboys' preseason game on Saturday night against the Seahawks in Seattle ... and he shined, recording a sack and two tackles. He was also seen participating in Dallas' training camp practice on Tuesday -- a day after their off-day Monday.
The Cowboys, according to the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, were aware of the arrest.
Williams has been previously accused of wrongdoing in December 2022, when authorities alleged he drove recklessly before crashing his Corvette in Plano.
Williams -- Dallas' second-round pick in the 2022 NFL Draft -- has been expected to have a big role for the Cowboys this season.
