On how many teams tried to get him on their active roster last season:
Williams: “I can’t remember exactly, but I know it was between five and 10.”
On why he didn’t leave; it would have been a lot more money:
Williams: “Money is not an issue for me. I feel like when you chase money, you’re chasing the wrong thing. I’m chasing happiness. The Cowboys have always been my favorite team since I can remember. The Cowboys made me fall in love with football. I’m thinking about the bigger picture, and that’s Ryan Williams being happy. Set aside from everything else, the money is always going to be there. I grew up — my mother never made money like this, and she raised three grown boys by herself.

Everything about this organization made me want to be here. I don’t want to go anywhere else where I’m not happy. I don’t want to go anywhere else where I don’t like the coach. I don’t want to go anywhere else where I feel like something is being said about me which shouldn’t be said about me, because it’s not right. I want to be right here.”
On not being a part of the team last year on Sundays:
Williams: “I wouldn’t’ say it was that difficult, but
