Williams announced his retirement on Saturday morning after nine NFL seasons, the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
ANALYSIS
Williams, the seventh overall pick in the 2004 NFL Draft by the Lions, ultimately flamed out after posting a few good seasons early in his career. His career really went downhill after he was traded to the Cowboys in 2008 and was given a five-year, $45 million contract. He caught just 94 passes and 13 touchdowns over three seasons with Dallas before being cut. He played with the Bears last season, catching 37 passes and 507 yards, but decided to call it a career after generating tepid interest during the offseason.

Williams had arguably his best season as a Cowboy, averaging a solid 8.3 YPT, 14.3 YPC and catching 11 passes of 20 yards or more. Of course, Williams saw just 64 targets, but that will likely change now that he is Chicago's top receiving option. There's still some upside for a 29-year old 6-2, 210-pound receiver who can get down field, especially paired with a strong-armed Jay Culter that has lacked a big wideout since his days as a Bear. Williams could very easily become a target monster or another massive bust during his time in Chicago, making him one of the biggest risk-reward picks in 2011.
