DALLAS — 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, with the indictment related to 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 released a statement saying that they were aware of the “legal matter” with Sneed, are in contact with NFL security per league protocol, and would make 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 Avi Ahmed and Christian Nshimiyimana, 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 Ahmed nor Nshimiyimana recognized the two-time Super Bowl champion or Williams and said they didn’t think they had ever interacted with them previously.
No one was hit by bullets fired from the Lamborghini Urus. The lawsuit says bullets did hit the Mercedes-Benz as well as a building.
The Titans placed Sneed on injured reserve last month with a quadriceps injury, marking the second straight season the Titans have put him on IR. Sneed played only five games in 2024 after Tennessee acquired him in a trade with the Kansas City Chiefs before signing him to a contract that made him the NFL’s fifth-highest-paid cornerback at the time.
A former Louisiana Tech standout, Sneed was selected by Kansas City in the fourth round of the 2020 NFL draft and won back-to-back Super Bowls with the Chiefs in the 2022-23 seasons.
