Williams admitted his mistake, which led to the so-called “Minnesota Miracle,” during an emotional postgame interview. He also vowed on Twitter to move on from the play and continue to thrive in his career.
I appreciate my friends, real fans, family, and team for everything they have done for me this season all of the support is highly appreciated!No the season didn’t end as planned but one thing for sure I won’t let one play define the type of MAN or PLAYER that I am or will be!💯
