Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox NFL biography Clarence "Clancy" Williams, Jr. (September 24, 1942 – September 21, 1986) was an American football defensive back who played eight seasons in the National Football League (NFL), all with the Los Angeles Rams.[1][2][3]

Born in Texas, Williams was raised in suburban Seattle and graduated from Renton High School. He played college football at Washington State University in Pullman and was an All-American as a senior in 1964. Williams played on both sides of the ball: on offense at halfback and defense at cornerback. WSU sports historian Dick Fry made the case Williams was the finest two-way player in Washington State history. [4] He was selected in the first round of the 1965 NFL Draft (ninth overall) by the Rams. [1][2][3]

After football, Williams worked in Los Angeles in banking and at the Los Angeles Times newspaper. He died of cancer in Seattle at age 43 in 1986.[1][2] and was interred at Greenwood Memorial Park in Renton.

His son Clarence III also played football at Washington State and in the NFL.
