Bills Today: Kyle Williams explains why he returned for 2018
‘“I love football. I love team,” Williams told One Bills Live. “There’s nothing like a team. We’ve got a lot of 21-year-old guys that are closer in age to my oldest daughter than they are to me.

What bonds and what brings them together is team, and is this game.’

I don’t know what activity there would or would not have been for me. But when the playoffs started, I just knew I wanted to be focused and didn’t want to talk about or think about anything but that.”’

We believe in our guys. We just need to play better football.”’
