The injury occurred in the second quarter of Williams' first game after being suspended 18 months for repeated violations of the NFL substance-abuse policy. He underwent four months of rehabilitative therapy this summer at Boston facility, and the league reinstated him last week. ... "It's just sad," Williams' agent, Leigh Steinbergm told the Post. "He worked so hard for that moment and to have it end this way is sad." Steinberg said he wasn't worried the setback could cause Williams to relapse. ... For the record, team officials have yet to confirm this story. We'll report back when they do.
