A new report provides more disturbing details regarding the FBI raid of Alan Williams’ home.
On Wednesday, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported that the Bears’ defensive coordinator announced his resignation following news of the FBI raid. In a statement passed along by Rapoport, Williams said he wanted to focus on his health and family.
In an update, MLFootball reports that FBI agents raided Williams’ home because of “serious allegations.” In a sting operation, agents found “extremely sensitive coaching”, with a source telling MLFootball that he won’t coach in the NFL again.
There had also been reports about FBI agents also raiding Halas Hall, the official headquarters of the Bears. But a team spokesperson told ESPN’s Courtney Cronin that the building was NOT raided.
