T'Vondre Sweat's 2024 DWI Case Dismissed Due To Insufficient Evidence

Austin, TX — Tennessee Titans 2024 second-round pick T'Vondre Sweat is officially in the clear after Travis County prosecutors moved to dismiss the driving-while-intoxicated charge that stemmed from an April rollover crash, court documents obtained by TMZ Sports show.

The 6-foot-4, 335-pound defensive tackle was arrested in the early-morning hours of Sunday, April 7, after his orange 2023 Ford Bronco was struck from behind by a blue 2020 Dodge sports car on a Texas highway, flipped on its side and came to rest on its right flank. Sweat, 24, walked away uninjured, but officers at the scene reported “glassy eyes” and “an odor of burnt marijuana,” and the player acknowledged he had been behind the wheel. A preliminary breath sample was said to have registered .105, above the .08 legal limit, though authorities now say that measurement cannot be relied upon.

In a one-page motion filed last week, the Travis County Attorney’s Office stated it “cannot prove beyond a reasonable doubt the element of intoxication,” triggering an immediate dismissal. The court granted the motion and lifted all conditions of bond, including the ignition-interlock device that had been installed in Sweat’s vehicle.

Defense attorney E.G. Morris hailed the outcome, telling TMZ Sports, “He was involved in an accident that was not his fault, and he was lucky to come away from it with no lasting injuries. I commend the Travis County Attorney's Office for carefully reviewing this case and coming to the conclusion stated in the Motion to Dismiss. Some may say he received special treatment. He got the treatment that I hope every citizen will receive in these circumstances—professionalism from the prosecutors. The evidence simply didn't support the charge.”

Sweat, whom Morris described as “a fine young man that enjoys the support of a great family,” is now turning his attention back to football. Traded from Tennessee to the New York Jets in February, the third-year pro is preparing for the 2026 NFL season after logging 85 tackles, eight for loss, three sacks and one forced fumble across two campaigns in Nashville.
