Bears are denying that Halas Hall was raided, saying it is false.

Williams claims to be resigning to take care "of his health and his family"

So ummmmm this is getting weirder

Statement from former Bears DC Alan Williams on his resignation, effective immediately. “I am taking a step back to take care of my health and family. I appreciate the opportunity to work with the Chicago Bears, a storied NFL franchise with a rich history. The McCasky family is first-class and second to none. I would also like to thank Coach Matt Eberflus and General Manager Ryan Poles for giving me the opportunity to come to Chicago. I would also like to thank President Kevin Warren, the coaches and player of which I value the relationships and camaraderie. I value the NFL shield and all that it stands for and after taking some time to address my health, I plan to come back and coach again.”

The league is not involved in the Allan Williams situation, per sources. I’m told it was his decision to resign. This has repeatedly been categorized as a personal situation and was handled internally by the Chicago Bears.

Was this dude doing scouting work at elementary schools? Seems to be the trend in/around Chicago.

Just saw that as well and texted my buddies, "that guy kinda sucks at everything."

Based on the few details available thus far, I'm going to guess that he has a gambling addiction ("health") and he was betting on NFL games potentially including the Bears (FBI).

Clarity:
-- The FBI did not raid Halas Hall today.
-- The league is not involved.
-- Peanut Tillman is not involved whatsoever in this matter.

would not expect him to ever return to the Chicago Bears. It has nothing to do with his coaching performance.


Way to go out on a limb there smh

He was hired specifically to spearhead the Bears move out of Soldier Field into a new stadium.

He was with the Lions when they moved from the Silverdome into Ford Field, and was in charge of building US Bank stadium when he was with the Vikings.

Also seeing claims on social media that Peanut Tillman is an FBI agent now


He has been an FBI agent since 2018 I believe.
