Yes, the big time bust Mike Williams.
Now, I don't know what his story in Seattle was, but I do know he was playing well for a while. Looked like he turned things around and was their best receiver.
Williams was a candidate for Comeback Player of the Year in 2010 after seeing his career rejuvenated by getting a second chance with Pete Carroll and the Seahawks following flops in Detroit and Oakland. But Williams could never develop a connection with new quarterback Tarvaris Jackson in 2011 and his season was cut short by a broken left ankle.
When Seattle signed Sidney Rice before the start of the 2011 season, the belief was that Rice and Williams gave the Seahawks two of the top big receivers in football. Williams was coming off a 2010 season when he caught 65 passes for 751 yards and two touchdowns and was rewarded with a three-year extension that paid him $1.75 million in base salary in 2011 and was scheduled to pay him $3 million in 2012.
Basically, I can't fault a guy for not developing a connection with a Tavaris Quincy Jackson.
I'd hope we look into this.
