Before Gregg Williams joined the Rams' staff, he was the Saints' defensive coordinator from 2009-11. This is notable for three reasons:

  1. In March 2012, the NFL suspended Williams indefinitely for his role in Bountygate;
  2. On Sunday, Williams, who was reinstated by the league in 2013, returns to New Orleans for the first time since everything went down.

Despite that history, Williams is looking forward to it, even if he'd understandably like to put the scandal behind him.
