ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. - The agent for Buffalo Bills wide receiver Mike Williams has been granted permission to seek a trade, General Manager Doug Whaley said Monday.Whaley said Williams agent, Hadley Englehard, asked to gauge interest from other teams in a possible trade. But Whaley says the Bills arent actively pursuing a trade.We like Mike Williams, we expect him back and we expect big things from him, Whaley said. But like anybody, if he gets me compensation worthy of a No. 1 wide receiver, which he claimed he is, then we would entertain it.Williams was not present in the locker room Monday when reporters were allowed access. A message left with Englehard was not immediately returned.Williams was surprisingly inactive for Sundays 37-22 loss to the New England Patriots. Williams started the Bills first four games.Bills coach Doug Marrone said the decision was made to deactivate Mike Williams when the team learned late last week that defensive tackle Kyle Williams would be healthy enough to play after missing the previous game with an ankle injury.By that time, we had put so much in game plan-wise for a three tight end package that we practice quite a bit, Marrone said.I brought Mike in on Saturday and I told him I needed him to do this for the team. I said, Its not a great situation, but its due to the special teams and everything that we needed to cover. We talked to him and he handled it like a pro and hell be ready to go next week.The Bills (3-3) acquired Williams in April for a sixth-round draft choice in a trade with Tampa Bay. He has eight catches for 142 yards and a touchdown in five games this season.Williams, a Buffalo native, said at the time it was a dream come true to be traded to his hometown team.Marrone was the coach at Syracuse when Williams abruptly quit the team in November 2009 during his junior season.Whaley said there have been no conflicts between Williams and Marrone this season.Hes been a great addition to our program, Whaley said.

The team changed quarterbacks two weeks ago and the franchise itself was recently sold to Terry and Kim Pegula.The running game, a perceived strength coming into the season, has struggled. The Bills have been held under 100 yards rushing in four straight games and have only two rushing TDs this year.Weve got to go back and get this going again, Marrone said. You put so much emphasis on the other stuff, you improve and then all the sudden you take something that was your strength - that I believed was our strength - and it does down. And thats what you cant have.Starting running back C.J. Spiller rushed six times for 19 yards against the Patriots and lost a fumble. Spiller was on the field for just 12 snaps, his lowest since the 2011 season.Its not one individual, Marrone said. Its easy when its one individual. You just put one out and put somebody else in. But its up front, its hitting the holes, its believing and rusting the scheme.On defence, the Bills now rank No. 1 in the league against the run, allowing 67.5 yards per game.
