DeAngelo Williams' ringtone reveals he's a 'Nickelback guy'

PITTSBURGH -- When a running back churns 303 total yards and three touchdowns in two games, he can listen to whatever he wants.

Even Nickelback.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back DeAngelo Williams was addressing the media after the team's 24-16 win over the Cincinnati Bengals when his phone went off. Nickelback's 2005 hit 'Rockstar' blared from the phone. Steelers public relations/media manager Dominic Rinelli reached into Williams' tan bag to silence the song, then the media contingent laughed with Williams and the football questions continued.

"I'm a Nickelback guy," said Williams with a smile.
