This player isn't a free agent yet, but from the talk in the Tampa Bay area it is just a matter of time.
He's a WR, entering his 5th year in the NFL. Didn't do much last year due to injury, but in his first three years he didn't miss a game and went 65/964/11, 65/771/3, and 63/996/9.
He's almost assuredly going to be cheap to sign, probably no more than whatever the vet minimum is for a 5th year player.
On the downside, he's not exactly a choirboy - which will most likely automatically disqualify him, being less than one year removed from the arrest of
The Prisoner.
It's time for Bucs to cut Mike Williams loose | Tampa Bay Times
He has a hearing Thursday for trespassing and criminal mischief charges after an incident in December when he busted up a woman's door.
While renting a 5,400-square-foot home in Lutz, Williams' lifestyle resulted in at least five calls to 911 in a four-month stretch last year. He racked up nearly $50,000 in damages to the house.
Neighbors told stories about party-goers showing up in stretch limos at 4 in the morning and cars tearing up yards and demolishing sprinkler heads, not to mention mattresses found on the front lawn, as if the whole thing was a deleted scene from Project X.
The sad thing is Williams isn't some goofy high school kid. He's a grown man. He's 26. When, exactly, is he going to grow up?
Then there are at least 16 traffic citations he has received since 2010. Sixteen!
All-night parties. Kicking in doors. Driving around town like a maniac. And now a mysterious stabbing.
