The right-handed reliever agreed to a three-year deal with the New York Mets on Monday worth $51 million guaranteed, sources told Will Sammon of The Athletic. The deal doesn't contain any opt outs or options.
Williams spent the first six seasons of his major-league career with the Milwaukee Brewers where he was a two-time All-Star, NL Rookie of the Year, and one of the most dominant closers in the sport. He pitched last season for the New York Yankees, where he struggled at times and was removed from the closer's role in July after posting a 5.01 ERA over his first 41 1/3 innings.

"I share their frustrations tonight. We didn't do enough. That's just the reality of it," Tomlin said, according to Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.

LSU signed Lane Kiffin to a seven-year, $91-million contract to become its new head coach, according to a copy of the term sheet obtained by The Advocate's Wilson Alexander.
The reported deal would place Kiffin among the highest-paid coaches in college football with an annual salary of $13 million. Georgia's Kirby Smart leads the country with a $13.28 million salary in 2025, per USA Today.
If Kiffin wins a national championship at LSU, his annual compensation will increase to make him the nation's highest-paid college coach, Alexander adds. The term sheet also stipulates that the school will owe Kiffin 80% of his remaining salary if it fires him without cause, payable in monthly installments through the remainder of the pact.
Kentucky fired head coach Mark Stoops on Monday, completing a move that was initially reported to be in motion one day earlier.
"I want to thank Mark for his dedication and leadership over the past 13 years, and as importantly, the friendship that is marked by walking these journeys together," athletic director Mitch Barnhart said in a statement. "His tenure transformed the program and reset expectations. His time here was filled with memorable victories, a historic run of consecutive bowl appearances, and a commitment to developing young men both on and off the field."
Stoops - who'd been with the Wildcats since 2013 - went 5-7 in 2025, up from 4-8 in '24. However, Kentucky's season ended with two straight losses, including a 41-0 defeat to rival Louisville on Saturday. The Wildcats ranked a paltry 102nd in points per game this year.
