PITTSBURGH -- Trevor Williams' teammates give him a hard time over his lack of a true nickname. Some people call him "Willy," but that hasn't hit the mainstream. Last year, he wore "EV" on his Players' Weekend jersey -- but that was a tribute to rock star Eddie Vedder, not a nickname.
Williams had a better idea this year: "PROJECT." So the back of his jersey this weekend will read "PROJECT 34," the name of the charitable nonprofit foundation that is dedicated to benefiting people who suffer from spinal cord injuries.
Williams is already wearing No.
