DeAngelo Williams And Vontaze Burfict Got Into A Twitter Fight

DeAngelo Williams was on ESPN today. He made the rounds…SportsCenter, First Take, etc…

He even did some dancing.

At some point during his interviews, the veteran running back said that the Bengals were going to be his rival this year.

“For me, my rival throughout my year will be the Cincinnati Bengals,” Williams told ESPN. “I don’t think there was any doubt in my mind if AB was not interfered on or hit the way he was hit, however you want to label it – there’s no doubt we go on and give the Broncos hell.”

Essentially, it seems, Williams is saying that Burfict’s hit on AB kept them from the Super Bowl.

Word got out to Burfict at some point today and he took to Twitter to put Williams in his place.

I’ll give Burfict credit…he spells way better than I would have guessed. After the brief exchange, his mentions skyrocketed, most of which were from Steelers fans.

Antonio Brown And DeAngelo Williams Miss Practice Again

While the wide receiver hinted at returning to practice last night on Snapchat, it appears to have just been wishful thinking.

Martavis Bryant told media members this afternoon that AB has been going to team meetings. While the door isn’t closed for Brown to play on Sunday, it’s creaking slowly that way. Brown will still has to show the team physician and a neurological consultant that he can participate in “football activity” without a setback.

DeAngelo Williams did not practice again today. He was in a walking boot yesterday and visited a foot specialist earlier in the week. He is reportedly out of the walking boot today for what it’s worth.

Here’s the rest of today’s injury report:

Ben Roethlisberger, Robert Golden, Vince Williams, and Will Johnson were limited. Cam Heyward and Ryan Shazier were full participants.

DeAngelo Williams Has Visit Scheduled With Steelers On Friday

Former Panthers running back DeAngelo Williams has a visit scheduled with the Steelers on Friday according to Adam Schefter.

After spending nine years with the Panthers, Williams was released on Tuesday. The 32 year old running back was limited to 6 games last season, but has rushed for a total of 6,846 yards over the course of his career. He also knows Steelers QB coach Randy Fichtner from his days at Memphis.

With Bell facing a potential 2 week suspension to open the 2015 season, bringing on a back like Williams makes a lot of sense.
