Financial terms of Williams’ contract were undisclosed. During his first four years with Detroit, Williams averaged 61 receptions a season. Jones made no secret that he has been pursuing Williams for a long time. “We’ve been talking to the Lions for two years about Roy, who is very familiar to us being from Texas,” Jones said. As for concerns about how Williams will coexist with the emotional Owens, Jones smiled. “I called Terrell and he was ecstatic,” Jones revealed. It will be interesting to see if all involved remain happy.
