Bears coordinator Alan Williams resigns after bizarre day at Halas Hall

A Bears season already on tilt in Week 3 at 0-2 took an odd turn that actually is not all that odd at Halas Hall.

After a week of vague details surrounding his absence last week, defensive coordinator Alan Williams suddenly resigned Wednesday, citing health and family reasons.

Williams released a statement on his own to announce his resignation:

“It is with great regret that I tender my resignation as the Defensive Coordinator of the Chicago Bears Football Club effective immediately.

“I am taking a step back to take care of my health and my family.
