NFL News: Williams was a previous star QB for Washington
Washington is very familiar with Doug Williams, as he was the QB for the team between 1986 and 1989. Williams was one of the key players that helped Washington win Super Bowl XXII. He also was named the MVP in that Super Bowl and became the first Black QB to play and win a Super Bowl.
Since Ron Rivera's arrival in Washington, the organization was almost cleaned out by him, as he brought most of the Carolina Panthers' staff along with him. But Rivera saw the importance and respect Williams had, both within the organization and outside by fans.
The team certainly has an important offseason on their hands, and it will be interesting to see what moves are made, as Washington will be considered a dark horse team.
