Jamaal Williams cried during training camp last summer. And cursed. “Every time I get tired, or I think I can’t go no more, I think of that (expletive) record,” he told his huddled teammates after practice. “Last year wasn’t it. That ain’t us. We can make it.” The speech went viral and endeared him to
Allen Park — When you know, you know. And after getting a brief look at his options in free agency, new Detroit Lions cornerback Cam Sutton knew didn’t need to keep them open any longer.

Jamaal Williams became a Detroit Lions fan-favorite over the past two seasons, so his goodbye after signing with the Saints will hit right in the feels.
