MIAMI (AP) – Since turning pro in 1999, Ricky Williams has covered a lot of ground. He sought retirement refuge in Australia and India, mounted a career comeback in Canada and has rushed for more than five miles with the Miami Dolphins and New Orleans Saints.
However, Sunday will be the first time he has played in Cincinnati.
Williams is likely to play an important role against the Bengals. Coming off the bench, he has averaged 48 yards rushing per game and 4.3 per carry. The latter figure is higher than his career average of 4.1.
Williams has been with the Dolphins since 2002, longer than any other player on the roster. His longevity is a surprise considering he retired for a season in 2004 and played in only one NFL game in 2006-07.
