Alabama Football Player Caught With Weed Points Finger at ‘Brandon Chicken’

University of Alabama linebacker Tim Williams was caught with a clear plastic bag of marijuana in his car early Thursday, according to a report from The Tuscaloosa News.

But the marijuana didn’t belong to him, according to court records obtained by the News, or his friend Tykheem Dunaway who was in the car as well.

No. The weed apparently belonged to Brandon Chicken.

According to the court document, Dunaway claimed to local authorities that the bag was the property of Chicken, for whom he was simply holding the drugs.

Williams was charged with carrying a pistol without a permit and released on $300 bond.
