By Ross Jones, FOXSports.com Vikings defensive tackle Kevin Williams isn’t happy and he shouldn’t be. During a 34-14 preseason loss to the 49ers, Williams was injured in the third quarter on a very questionable block by offensive tackle Joe Looney. “I was just upset that I’m getting cut 11 years in [the NFL] from a guy who I don’t even know,” Williams told the Star Tribune. “I figure between the pain and the fact he cut me when I wasn’t looking was my reaction.” The Vikings continue to wait on MRI results and head coach Leslie Frazier expressed some concern after the game. Veteran defensive end Jared Allen was also not pleased by the block and told NBC sideline broadcaster Michele Tafoya exactly what he thought of it. "From what I understand, it was a dirty play," Allen said. "It sucks."
