The Falcons released safety Jimmy Williams Tuesday, parting with their top pick of the 2006 NFL Draft.
"It's a football decision," head coach Mike Smith said. "It's a decision we made. We've been evaluating."
Though Williams once was perceived as a potential impact player, he never found his way with the Falcons in two seasons.
Things further declined this offseason when Williams reported to workouts weighing more than 230 pounds. He also missed two of three days of a voluntary minicamp.
