Quotes: LB Jacquian Williams on what he is doing today: “Lot of studying, staying humble and continue to pray that I’m still on the team. Hopefully I’ll be lining up against the Redskins. I’m the type of guy once I start something, I don’t want to go to the next team. I want to stay here because this is where I started, this is where I want to finish.”
