(AP) -- The St. Louis Rams will not renew the contract of linebackers coach Blake Williams, son of suspended defensive coordinator Gregg Williams.


A team spokesman told the Associated Press Wednesday night that there was "nothing to report" on Gregg Williams, banished for his role in the New Orleans Saints' bounty scandal.

Gregg Williams was an early addition to new coach Jeff Fisher's staff last winter and Fisher did not replace him after the NFL handed down its suspension.


Blake Williams just completed his first season with the Rams after three years as a defensive assistant with the Saints.

Fisher said Monday that Gregg Williams had not been reinstated, and that Williams' future would be addressed "over the next couple of weeks."
