The agent for five-time Pro Bowl safety Roy Williams confirmed Wednesday the Bengals have reached an agreement as the club added its third impact player on defense in a month.
"There were a couple of teams offering considerable more money, but Roy liked the fit in Cincinnati," Jordan Woy said. "It's a good fit for both sides really. Roy obviously has a great relationship with (defensive coordinator) Mike Zimmer and he's excelled in that defense and the Bengals are happy to get a guy like that for their defense."
Woy wouldn't comment on terms, but said, "It's a short-term deal with incentives so both sides can get their feet wet with the situation and we'll go from there."
Williams, once the most feared hitter in the NFL, went to four Pro Bowls under Zimmer after the the Cowboys made him the eighth pick in the 2002 draft.
An already improving young defense just got that much better. Once again, I am sorry for those that gave up their tickets! I feel something special coming on this season!
