Williams was drafted as a weakside linebacker in 2004, moved to the strong side in 2005, then played middle linebacker for the first time in the 2007 season. But after the Broncos finished 30th in rushing defense last year, Williams is being moved back to the outside.

"It's tough to be thrown into a position and be great at it," Shanahan said of Williams' temporary shift to the middle. "I thought he did a good job. You look at all the tackles he had, but I just don't think it was really natural for him."
