Professional Career
Williams went undrafted in the 2010 NFL Draft. The Chicago Bears invited Williams to attend a rookie mini-camp tryout. The Bears had Jay Cutler, Caleb Hanie, and Dan LeFevour already on the roster. During the offseason, Chicago also picked up Todd Collins and Matt Gutierrez. Williams has not received any other invitations from professional teams.
On October 4, 2010 after a game against the New York Giants in which both starting QB Jay Cutler and 2nd stringer Todd Collins were knocked out of the game, Williams tweeted that the Bears had contacted him and that he was "high on list." However, he was never added to the roster.

“I doubt that I would have taken so many leaps in my own writing or been as clear about my feminist and political commitments if I had not been anointed as early as I was. Some major form of recognition seems to have to mark a woman’s career for her to be able to go out on a limb without having her credentials questioned.”
—Ruth Behar (b. 1956)
