One of the biggest headlines from around the NFL on Saturday was the Buffalo Bills’ decision to release second-year running back Karlos Williams. For some fans and especially outsiders to the Buffalo organization, this news came as a major surprise. But for many, the multitude of factors that led to the end of Williams’ career in Buffalo made it only a matter of time until the transaction was made.
Those who were surprised may have good reason to be, as Williams was a major force on Buffalo’s offense in his rookie season. In his 11 games, the young, powerful running back scored nine touchdowns.
