Everyone knew this was coming but its still kinda sad

Two pieces from the article:

 

"We sat down and he told me 'The fact of the matter is we're going to have to release you'," Williams told Molly Grantham during a sit down conversation. "I said you know, 'Why?' and he said, 'because we don't run the ball enough. Just like you said back before the season started, we don't run the ball enough to keep you and both [Jonathan Stewart], so we're going to release you'."
 

"I don't feel bitter at all. [stewart] had the hot hand at the end of the season. He's a great running back, obviously, uh, I don't feel bitter at all. It's a business," Williams said. "And that business comes back and reminds us year after year - whether it be Steve Smith, whether it be Jordan Gross, whether it be myself - it's going to happen to every guy in that locker room, so it doesn't bother me at all."

Even though we had to do it ... still burns. Love you DWill, best of luck!

Damn.   I hated him toward the end there,  but I'm going to miss the guy being a Panther.

LOL at Jones, Person, and Voth. fuging Molly Grantham at WBTV gets the scoop.

We all knew it was coming.  Still sucks, but it had to be done.

Yup. Great Panther. It was time though. 

 

Atlanta is in the need for a RB.....

[Captain Morgan]

We love you DWill.  You are our Goat running back, but by far a better person.

She and DeAngelo (and Keith Larson, for that matter) are fairly close. They all do a lot of work with cancer patients and the like.

Williams has always given Molly the scoop, from what I understand.
