nodded off
Drifted into sleep
To nod off is to fall asleep, usually unintentionally or in a situation where sleep wasn't planned: I nodded off during the meeting, She nodded off on the couch watching TV.
The phrase suggests drifting into sleep gradually rather than suddenly—the head dropping forward as consciousness fades.
