Kyle Williams has run out of chances with the San Francisco 49ers. ESPN's Adam Caplan reported Tuesday that the Niners will place the wide receiver on waivers, according to an NFL source. Source: NFL.com ICECOLD's Take: I was seeing that this was going to happen sooner or later since he hasn't been very productive this year receiving or on special teams. Without his speed on the outside defenses will presumably be able to play closer to the line of scrimmage against the 49ers offense.
if only they had released him prior to January 22nd, 2012, the niners would be super bowl XLVI champions, Alex Smith would be adored in San Francisco, and Colin Kaepernick would be holding a clipboard.............
Yeah probably not. He was forced to be back there returning last-minute because Ginn hurt his cat, I don't think whoever was third in line to be the return guy would have done much either if Williams wasn't on the team. Plus, Alex Smith was the reason that game was lost, not Williams.
This is bitter sweet for me because I really pulled for Kyle. Maybe the injury affected him more than anyone thought, but he really took steps backwards this year.
Obviously, my post was tongue in cheek. No game is ever won or lost with one play. Yes, Williams puked all over the field in crunch time but mainly i just wanted to make a few of the Alex haters choke on their drinks at my potential scenario.
There's no Alex Smith haters around here. This story is about the potential release. He was officially released.
