Vikings' KWilliams says he discussed positive test

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) -Minnesota Vikings defensive tackle Kevin Williams is acknowledging that he told several people he had tested positive for a banned diuretic before news of the test results leaked to the media in 2008.

Just who leaked the test results for Williams and his teammate Pat Williams is an issue in this week's trial of the players' lawsuit against the NFL.

The players claim that the league leaked the results in violation of Minnesota labor law.

Kevin Williams testified Wednesday that he told his wife, his agent, head coach Brad Childress and perhaps an attorney that he had tested positive. Williams said he only told people on a “need-to-know basis.”
