Whatever advantage inside linebacker Jason Williams derived from being in the Dallas Cowboys' system a year longer than rookie Sean Lee is gone.
Coach Wade Phillips said this week that Williams has played well on special teams but Lee is ``further ahead as far as being able to play right now'' in the base defense. Inactive for the last two games because of a strained hamstring, Lee is expected to return for Sunday's game against Tennessee. His main duty will be special teams, but he could also get some plays on defense.
``He (Lee) can play about anything,'' Phillips said. ``We've just got to get him out there. He makes very few mistakes, especially for a rookie. He's gung-ho, going hard all the time.''
Williams received two plays with the defense during the win at Houston. On the second snap, Texans back Arian Foster ripped through the middle of the defense on a 26-yard run.
