Roy Williams could be back with Bengals
The Cincinnati Bengals continue to talk contract with representatives for free agent strong safety Roy Williams. Williams’ agent, Jordan Woy, said today that the two sides are talking in an effort to get a deal done that would bring the former Pro Bowl safety back to Cincinnati.
The Bengals signed Williams to a one-year contract during the offseason in 2009. The 9-year veteran safety fractured his right forearm in Week 3 and was placed on injured reserve. Williams finished the season with 28 tackles.
Williams, 29, reunited with defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer and was an impact player on defense before the injury. Head Coach Marvin Lewis has already expressed his desire to have the hard-hitting safety back in uniform.

As long as he signs for the league minimum it’s a good deal. Roy is just too injury prone as of late but when on the field he provides a good boost to the run defense

Hopefully, they get this deal done. We also need to make sure that Odom and Tank Johnson are back as well. Before the depth was cut due to injuries, Cinci was a top 5 team!

I would like him back…and yes, I agree for the league min…also. YES, if Cincy doesn’t go after Brandon Marshall for that 1st overall #21 pick I don’t think the WR corp will improve at all. I have been saying that since 2 weeks before FA started
