Early on Wednesday, speculation surrounding Chicago Bears’ Defensive Coordinator Allan Williams’ suspicious resignation gave way to some serious allegations. The 53-year-old former football player and coach joined the Bears in 2022 after the appointment of the team’s new Head Coach, Matt Eberflus. Williams stepped down from his office last week, leaving Dead Coach Matt Eberflus assuming defensive play-calling responsibilities during the 27-17 loss to the Buccaneers.

“I am taking a step back to take care of my health and family,” stated the former Bears defense coordinator, but matters do not seem as simple as it appears. Rumors have been running riot ever since Williams’ resignation, indicating strong possibilities of fowl play. 

Alleged FBI raid at William’s residence in lue of ‘undisclosed incident’

Shortly after the official resignation announcement, news started piling in on a possible FBI raid at William’s personal residence as well as Halas Hall which serves as the Bears’ headquarters. The raid rumors found its root in a tweet posted by a football aggregation account with nearly 100,000 followers on the platform X, stating, “The FBI raided Chicago #Bears defensive coordinator Alan Williams home due to some very serious allegations.” The sting found some extremely sensitive ‘content’ that could result in Williams not being able to “coach again for Chicago or any #NFL team, “for the rest of his life.” Bears podcaster Bill Zimmerman tweeted shortly after, ” The story I’m hearing around Alan Williams, if true, is shocking. I would not expect him to ever return to the Chicago Bears. It has nothing to do with his coaching performance.”

Brad Biggs, Chicago Tribune Bears reporter, acknowledged the dearth of speculation around the matter in a tweet, “Lot of speculation about the status of #Bears defensive coordinator Alan Williams.” “I can tell you for the last 3 days we’ve been operating under the belief that his absence has not been related to health or a family matter,” suggested Bill.

However, the scale so far is equally weighed, with numerous personalities debating otherwise. 

No proof yet of William’s apparent “very serious allegations”

“The rumors on social media are offensive and one hundred percent untrue,” assured Andrew M. Stroth, Williams’ personal attorney, acknowledging William’s original statement which disclosed that his resignation was owing to family concerns exclusively. “Coach Williams resigned (Wednesday) because of personal health challenges and personal family issues. There was no raid on Halas Hall, and no raid on his home,” Stroth stated. 

The Bear’s headquarters in Halas Hall did not undergo any FBI raids, according to an insider. Sources at the Lake Forest police department too were reportedly unaware of any activity involving local law enforcement at Halas Hall on Wednesday.

In 2022, Bears’ head coach Matt Eberflus invited Williams on board to assume the role of defensive coordinator. Williams and Eberflus had previously collaborated with the Indianapolis Colts, where Williams served as the defensive backs coach while Eberflus held the position of defensive coordinator. 

In Williams’ absence, Eberflus will be assuming defensive responsibilities during the Bears’ visit to Arrowhead Stadium as they take on the defending Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs this Sunday.
