Williams Won’T Play

New Orleans rookie running back Ricky Williams’ hyperextended elbow will keep him out of Sunday’s game against Chicago “unless there’s an unbelievable change,” coach Mike Ditka said.

A young man found dead last week in a cooler in a Michigan State University dorm basement attended the same church as Dimitrius Underwood, the NFL player who slashed his own neck after repeatedly yelling, “I’m not worthy of God.”

Detectives who spoke this week to friends of Neftali Valdez Greene Jr. found that the 23-year-old had attended Immanuel’s Temple Community Church in Lansing for about a year. It was not immediately clear if Underwood knew Greene.

Underwood’s mother, an ordained minister, earlier this week said the church her son attended was a “cult that’s posing as a church.”
