WILLIAMS STAYS PUT, FOR NOW



As first suggested in this here space on Saturday, Redskins owner Dan Snyder has backed up the Brinks truck into the front yard of defensive coordinator Gregg Williams, and removed him from the market of available head coaches with a three-year deal, worth up to $8 million.Jay Glazer of FOXSports.com reports the deal, which includes a commitment from Williams not to interview for any head-coaching positions this year. He is free, however, to leave for a head-coaching job in 2007.In our view, however, the likely result come 2007 is that Joe Gibbs will be at most a year from retirement, and Williams will then strike a deal to succeed him as the head coach of the Redskins.
