2017 NFL Free Agency: Mario Williams Cut By Dolphins

Want to feel old? The Houston Texans drafted NC State defensive end Mario Williams No. 1 overall in the NFL Draft eleven years ago. The discussion of whether the Texans should draft Williams, Reggie Bush or Vince Young is long gone.

Super Mario proved to be the most productive of those three players, but that’s moot now. After signing with the Miami Dolphins less than a year ago, Mario Williams was cut for the second time in his career yesterday.

We have released DE Mario Williams, DT Earl Mitchell and waived CB Ifo Ekpre-Olomu.
