"It's a volatile league," Williams said, per Kevin Patra of NFL.com. "A guy my stature and my age, I thought security was important, and that was all." He emphasized the importance of feeling secure in a challenging professional environment, especially considering his experience in the league.
"Obviously, I didn't think it would get this drawn out," Williams added. "But it's a tough business, and this was a very intricate contract-I wouldn't call it a dispute- but a restructure." He indicated that the complexity of the contract negotiations contributed to the duration of the discussions.
