i understand picking up a RB but the special team question is a good one.

Re: Saints beat Falcons to sign Williams

Payton wasn't the only member of the coaching staff to reach out.

Running backs coach Joel Thomas, who coached Williams at Arkansas, also called his former player, making Williams' decision to pick the Saints a formality.

"The effort they put in, I loved that," Williams said. "It was a no-brainer."

Williams arrived at the Saints training facility Tuesday morning, signed his contract and quickly immersed himself in the playbook.

He didn't leave until 9 p.m., but he immediately felt welcomed.

"It's a great team environment," Williams said. "Honestly, I already feel like I've been a part of this team the whole season and it's been a day.
