For the past 11 years, Buffalo Bills defensive tackle Kyle Williams has toiled in the trenches season after fruitless season.
He has made five trips to the Pro Bowl -- in 2010, 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2016 -- but Buffalo has made zero trips to the postseason. The Bills' ongoing 17-year playoff drought is the longest streak by any team in the NFL, MLB, NBA or NHL.
Williams, now 34 and a father to five children with his wife, Jill, could have decided not to embark on a 12th grueling autumn of playing football for the Bills.
