Via CBS Sports:
Jason La Canfora reported this offseason that Williams told his teammates that he demanded a trade or his release from the team due to their handling of a recent medical situation, and had vowed not to play for them again. On Thursday, Williams spoke with reporters for the first time about why he was away in his own words.
“It was cancer,” said Williams, via Kareem Copeland. “I had cancer, I had a tumor removed from my skull. It got pretty serious for a second. I was told some scary things from the doctor so it was definitely nothing to play with — one of the things that will change your outlook on life.”
You really can’t blame Williams for not wanting to play for the Redskins. He trusts the medical staff and they royally screwed a serious situation up.
