TAMPA — Nearly 33 years after he last took a snap for the Bucs, former quarterback Doug Williams heard thunderous cheers from Raymond James Stadium fans Sunday when he was inducted into Tampa Bay’s Ring of Honor.
He said it felt great.
“If this had been five years past when I left, it probably wouldn’t have happened,’’ said Williams, 60.
“It’s kind of like my mom, bless her soul, when she cooks red beans. You’ve got to let it simmer a little bit. After years of simmering, people realized the impact Doug Williams had on this area and the franchise.
