Buffalo Bills safety Aaron Williams suffered what appears to be a serious neck injury in Sunday’s game against the Miami Dolphins. He was immediately transported to the hospital where his upper-body was stabilized.
This injury occurred a year after Williams missed most of the 2015 season due to yet another neck injury. It also comes mere months after he suffered an ugly-looking concussion during the preseason.
Needless to say, Williams is contemplating his future in the NFL.
Dad of Bills S Aaron Williams told AP his son intends to wait until offseason to determine whether to keep playing after latest neck injury.

For his part, Landry has not yet been fined by the NFL for the brutal hit. Though, various reports suggest that’s likely to happen here soon.
The hit itself was absolutely gruesome.

It’s an unfortunate situation for Williams to be in right now. Let’s just hope he makes the best decision for his long-term health.
