ASHBURN, Va. — Once a Super Bowl MVP, Doug Williams waited his entire post-playing career to run a professional team.
"You want this day to come," he said. "When you get up every morning, you hope it'll come."
It's here. The former quarterback is now in charge of Washington as senior vice president of player personnel. He's running the show, but Williams made it very clear he's not the general manager.
"We had a general manager — it didn't work out that well," Williams said Tuesday, referring to the two-year tenure of Scot McCloughan, who was fired in March.
