As the NFL preseason winds down former WSU running back James “Boobie” Williams may have found a home with an old friend. Williams was signed by the Detroit Lions yesterday and joins former Cougar teammate Joe Dahl just in time for their preseason finale. Williams previously signed with the Colts and Chiefs before being released and also tried out for the Patriots. Williams should get some playing time tonight against Cleveland at 4:30 pm.
The Lions recently released veteran and alliteration god Zach Zenner so Boobie will likely be competing for the third and maybe fourth running back position.
