Wow! It turns out former NFL wide receiver Mike Williams is NOT dead!

That news came according to the New York Post and several other outlets. But now the Tampa Bay Times is confirming the ex-Buccaneers player is ALIVE — and showing encouraging signs of life amid a very difficult condition.
Per the outlet, the 36-year-old was placed on life support at St. Joseph’s Hospital in Tampa for several days. But there’s good news!
