Police arrested a Dallas Cowboys rookie at Love Field Friday for carrying a prohibited weapon.
Twenty two-year-old Asaph Schwapp was boarding a flight to Houston when security found a throwing-star in his bag, police say. A throwing star is a popular martial arts weapon.
A police report states Schwapp told officers he collects martial arts weapons and that a friend had given it to him. The report also states he was "extremely cooperative."
Schwapp is a fullback and attended Notre Dame. He was an undrafted free agent picked up by the Cowboys this year.
Schwapp was running third team fullback at off-season workouts this week with little chance of making the team.
The Cowboys have not released an official statement about the arrest.
Schwapp was released from the Dallas County Jail late Friday night on a $1,500 bond.
