Oh Canada! Ricky Willams May Play North Of The Border
3rd May, 2006 - 11:33 am
Miami Herald - After several violations of the League's drug policy, Ricky Williams is now contemplating playing in the Canadian Football League.

Agent Leigh Steinberg said Tuesday night that Williams said he would consider playing for the Toronto Argonauts of the Canadian Football League next season. Steinberg also said he would begin negotiations with the team shortly.

''Ricky is open to it, so we'll see what's there,'' said Steinberg, who spoke with Toronto assistant general manager Greg Mohns on Tuesday. ``We have haven't gotten into specifics of a deal yet. On the plus side, this is an opportunity to have him compete and stay in football shape while having some economic benefit.

``Toronto is one of the nicest Canadian cities, the organization is one of the best in the CFL, and they have a good coach who is open to players like Ricky. The minus is, obviously, the prospect of him getting hurt.'' [READ]
