PITTSBURGH — The misdemeanor simple-assault case against Tennessee Titans linebacker Rashad Weaver has been closed. Weaver was charged in 2021 in Pittsburgh in an incident that occurred days before the Titans drafted him with a fourth-round pick. The charge against Weaver stemmed from an alleged altercation with a woman. Weaver played in college at Pitt. The status change of "nolle prossed" in court records means the case won't go forward and charges are typically dismissed. In a document to complete that process, prosecutors stated the accuser "does not wish to be subjected to the stress of the criminal-trial process."
