The fifth-year tight end said he feels "most definitely" that his job is in jeopardy this year after a disappointing 2004 season, in which he started only eight games, catching 33 passes for two touchdowns. "I understand certain things are business matters," said Williams, who is scheduled to receive $850,000 this year. "But I have no say in what the coaches do. All I can control is what I do.

Williams' production dropped off last year after his 2003 season, in which he had 41 catches and five touchdowns.
