Ricky Williams now says his desire to continue smoking marijuana was one of the many reasons he retired. Also says he recently failed a third drug test and was facing a 4-game suspension, after continuing to smoke pot while appealing a second positive test in May.
Notably, he says that he had decided to retire in May after receiving the second notification. The Dolphins, however, were not informed of the decision until a few days ago and were unaware of the third positive test.
