Tight end Marcus Williams, who was seriously injured during a fight with linebacker Bill Romanowski in practice, will not press charges against his Oakland Raiders teammate at this time, Williams' agent said Tuesday.

Appearing on the Dan Patrick Show on ESPN Radio, Williams' agent Lee Kolligian did not rule out the possibility of Williams pressing charges in the future.

Williams, a 14-game backup last year, will be out four-to-six weeks, ESPN.com's John Clayton reports. Williams' left orbital bone was broken and nose damaged in the fight, coach Bill Callahan said. Williams reportedly lost a tooth, as well.

Williams' injury puts the Raiders in a position of reaching an injury settlement with him, Clayton reports. Williams is scheduled to make a base salary of $300,000.

If Williams' career is in jeopardy, Kolligian said Tuesday that pressing charges is something Williams would have to think about.

Kolligian confirmed that Williams called the police before he spoke to his client, and that the Raiders have talked to him about handling the incident "in house."

"The Raider organization has been in contact with us constantly since this happened," Kolligian said Tuesday.

Alameda Police Lt. Jim Brock told the San Francisco Chronicle that his department would not pursue the matter after speaking with Williams on Monday afternoon.

"He said he kind of overreacted [by calling the police]," Brock told the Chronicle on Monday. "He said he wanted to keep it on the field. As far as we're concerned, the case is closed."

Williams underwent several tests at a local hospital before being released Sunday night. Kolligian told the Chronicle that Romanowski pulled Williams' helmet off following a routine play during a 9-on-7 drill and leveled the damaging punch in full view of teammates and coaches.

"Speaking to Bill and Marcus, [the fight] was pretty much a one-sided issue," Callahan said.

Callahan met with Romanowski for three hours on Monday night after practice. Romanowski didn't speak with reporters as he drove up to the team's training complex.

"It doesn't matter who it is," Callahan said when asked whether he was disappointed in Romanowski. "When it gets to that severity, I'm going to level a discipline. It goes beyond the game. Once it's beyond the respect and dignity of a player, it's a tragedy."

Romanowski is entering his 16th NFL season and second with the Raiders, who signed him as a free agent before their run to the AFC championship last fall. He has appeared in five Super Bowls and played in 240 consecutive regular-season games.

He was second on the team in tackles last year while helping Oakland's defense improve to fourth overall against the run.

But Romanowski has a long history of violent scrapes with opponents and others. One of his more well-publicized incidents came in December 1997, when he spit in the face of San Francisco 49ers receiver J.J. Stokes while playing for the Denver Broncos in a nationally televised game.

Romanowski was fined $7,500 by the NFL -- one of several fines for his behavior during his career.

Williams is in his second year with Oakland after playing in 13 games as an undrafted free agent last season. He played primarily on special teams last season, but was trying to earn a more regular position this year.

"I talked about fighting on the first day of training camp," Callahan said. "It's an intolerable offense. I think everybody understands how I feel. I'm really disappointed. It was really an unfortunate incident that kind of took the edge off practice."

The Raiders play their final preseason game Thursday against the Cowboys in Dallas.

he is a very intense individual.

True...His play on the field is the only thing that has kept his behavior seperate from play from burying him.He's a good asset to any team,but keeping him from doing distructive shit is a task.
 
Romanowski is the man! It is that intensity that has helped him to be successful. Granted it is good not to beat up your own team, but at least he is still hungry to kick some a$$... which is more than can be said about a lot of the lame duck bloated wallet free agents around the league...
 
GREAT JOB idiot reporters. Okay...so he whipped his ass....WHY???!?!??!?!? WHAT DID THE GUY DO TO GET ROMO FIRED UP?!!??! the 5 "W"s man...who/what/when/where/WHY???

I'm referring to ESPN not you guys
 
Skip Bayless was filling in for Rome today and was saying that it is a violent game, that this guy obviously did something to piss Romo off, and that Romo was defending himself/his turf.

Now aside from the fact that Bayless is a talentless idiot how can you totally justify Romo's behavior like that. Is it understandable that he got pissed off? Yes. Is football violent? Yes. Should he defend himself by punching the guy's eye and breaking the socket? Probably not. He could have pushed him away or any number of other things.

Nevertheless I can understand how these things happen, but to totally justify it like Bayless did is absurd. He should be a better man, but then he is a racist, and was involved in some illegal drug deal with his wife so I guess not.

Yep,Romo has a history of lots of fucked up things.He has always sort of slipped through the cracks though,due to his talent...Eventually his wild ways will catch up with him.

Romanowski vs. Dick Butkis (in his prime). Who would win the fight? I would say Butkis would stomp him into oblivion.


Fuck that give LT some crack, and watch him got to town...:D


(Butkis would stomp a mudhole in Romo the Homo's chest and walk it dry) ;)

How dare you? That was all media hype. The legend known as Lawrence Taylor is a demi-god and he has no needs or wants of such things like crack made for humans. If you look up in the sky you will see a constellation of him.

Somebody ban pitbullstl. In fact where is the FBI? This falls under treason. :D
