Williams to Participate in Reality TV Show

[.GR]

Ricky Williams will be one of the participants in the upcoming season of Pros vs. Joes on Spike TV, FOXSports.com has learned. The 10-episode show pits boisterous sports fans against retired stars in athletic competitions. The winning fan receives what Spike is touting as a "six-figure cash prize."

Ricky Williams became the first active player to participate in the series. Dressed in a blue-and-white uniform, Williams runs through a cone-marked lane while "Joes" try to tackle him before he reaches the end zone. One participant named Ray was steamrolled after meeting Williams head-on. A smile was visible under the running back's helmet as the "Joe" struggled to his feet and on-lookers laughed.

Pros vs. Joes debuts at 11 p.m. ET on January 23 and will air regularly at 11 p.m. ET on Thursdays starting January 24. Williams' segment is slated to air January 31.

Other athletes featured include Warren Moon (football), Pernell "Sweet Pea" Whitaker (boxing), Joe Carter (baseball) and Derrick Coleman (basketball).
