"They do bother me, honestly," Williams said, via SNY. "Obviously, we’re in our own home stadium. I don’t want to be hearing boos from our own fans. I understand that they have a right to be upset as well, because they’re coming to see us put good football on the field. We haven’t been winning today, but at the same time, I don’t know. I don’t like that.

"I don’t think anyone deserves to be put down no matter who you are," Williams continued. "I’m not gonna go to a salesman and tell him that he’s not a good person or boo this person because he’s not doing his job or something like that."
After the loss, the Giants are 1-5 on the season. New York will host the Carolina Panthers next week.
