Message: [QUOTE="huskymedic, post: 3232561, member: 549"] Missed this the other day. Good read w/ UConn highlights: [MEDIA=twitter]1156342708887330816[/MEDIA] >>Since he entered the league, Williams has been cut six times by four different teams. And although he’s less than a week in with the Broncos, the early signs offer promise. The first giveaway: Broncos head coach Vic Fangio gave him reps with Flacco and the starting offense in his first day on the job last Friday. “We’ve run low at receivers and particularly at the slot. We’re not low enough to ask Stokley if he can still play, but he did a good job,” Fangio said Friday afternoon. “He’s a guy that doesn’t meet your height, weight and speed, things that all the personnel people like, but looks like a pretty damn good football player to me out there. Maybe all he needed was an opportunity and he’s got one now. Let’s see.” The second tell-tale: Williams’ path from UConn has a clear trend. He’s a receiver molded in the Shanahan system. He was signed by Mike, played for Kyle, has been around Scangarello and is comfortable with the offense. “Pretty comfortable,” he said. “It’s just little subtleties, where you might have known it as ‘box’ but now it’s ‘Joe’ or something like that. You just have to memorize it in the beginning until you learn it in the new terms. But there’s a lot of carryover.”<< >>The third sign? At UConn, Williams returned 79 kickoffs for 2,045 yards and two touchdowns. He also returned 52 punts for 470 yards and a pair of touchdowns... “I enjoy it. I don’t really consider it special teams; it’s just another part of the game,” Williams said. “It’s a part of winning football.”<< [/QUOTE]
