Falcons cut Jimmy Williams

The ex-Tech All-American, who says he "never felt like I had a fair shot," mostly played on special teams.

no way jimmy got a fair shot, a constantly changing team, new coaches, people attempting to step up into the jobs that could change the franchises future in the game of football, and not to mention the new players drafted. Every one is afforded a chance to perform, and as a defensive back, SPECIAL TEAMS, doesn't let him show anything of his capabilities. The Atlanta Falcons had so many other things going on with the team, their focus was everywhere but giving him a chance. Personally if you looked at the trend that Virginia Tech sent to Atlanta. I believe they just wanted to do away with all of those choice to make a better appearing team in the eyes of the league. What will happen with Jimmy now?

Oh my! Poor thing! I guess he found out playing pro ball for a few million dollars requires him to take his weight and training a lot more seriously than he did in high school and college.
I'm afraid I can't muster up too much sympathy for him. He was given a great opportunity but he blew it. Not in the same way Michael Vick did but he has learned that the big guys could care less about your "personal problems". They expect you to EARN those millions.
