Mario Williams Blames Texans For Allowing Him To Leave For Bills

Buffalo Bills defensive end Mario Williams returns to Houston on Sunday to face the Texans butsays he never wanted to go elsewhere. 

Williams, the No. 1 pick in the NFL draft by the Texans in 2006, accepted a six-year, $100 million contract offer from the Bills during the offseason when he became a free agent. The Texans refused to use a franchise tag that would have cost them $20 million for one season to keep him.

“I didn’t want to enter free agency in the first place, but it was a one-way door given to me to leave Houston,” Williams told KRIV-TV. “I want the fans there to know entering free agency was not my decision.”

Williams hasn’t performed up to expectations so far this season for the Bills (3-4). He has 3 1/2 sacks in seven games.

The Texans are 6-1 without Williams.

“I’m definitely excited about coming back to the place where it all began,” said Williams, who has 56 1/2 career sacks. “The way things ended, I definitely feel like it was kind of a rough and all-of-the-sudden goodbye. There’s some things that I’m definitely uneasy about, the final decision-making that happened there. It was just the way it was handled.’
