Moe Williams signs with Rams

Former Vikings running back Moe Williams has signed a one-year contract with the St. Louis Rams. Williams will reunite with former Vikings offensive coordinator Scott Linehan, who is now the team's head coach. With Marshall Faulk sidelined for the season with a knee injury, Williams will be the backup to Steven Jackson. Tony Fisher is also in the mix for the backup spot.
Williams was a third-round pick of the Vikings in the 1996 NFL Draft.
