Here we go!

We knew Williams’ release was coming. It was sitting there as good as cash against the cap.

 

[OutlawSaint]

So who's gonna score a last second TD against the Falcons this season?

 

[VinSaint]

I liked the signing of Williams two years ago, thinking he would have a solid impact however, these two years of his have been very forgettable. Easy cut.

The cap savings is certainly a big part of these moves but what gets me a little more excited is some necessary roster turnover that often comes with a new regime. I say, bring on the changes.

great locker room guy but unfortunately never got going here

bout time

 

[DeuceMcAllisterFan]

We went through 2 coordinators with Williams. Even with injuries, the coordinators didn't care for him. The biggest waste of money in the Allen Era.

He deserve to get another opportunity for significant playing time.

The biggest shock of the off season so far. Granted it's the only thing we've done.

I was so hype when we sign him lol

 

[St.Dan]

He looked a step slow in the limited action he saw. Made nowhere close to the impact Lat Murray made in 2019, for sure.

 

[Taker597]

Saw this coming when they sign that LSU running back to a contract.

 

[RaisingTheBar]

Love his personality but saw this coming. Just didn’t work out here.
