Williams (undisclosed) was released by the Colts with an injury settlement on Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Williams went unclaimed off waivers after he was waived/injured by the Colts, and as evidenced by this news, he'll be free to sign with any team. The 2017 third-round pick appeared in one game with the Colts last season, failing to haul in his only target.

Williams (undisclosed) was waived/injured by Indianapolis on Monday, George Bremer of The Anderson Herald Bulletin reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's unclear what sort of injury Williams is dealing with, but it's serious enough to be let go from the team. If Williams clears waivers, he'll revert back to the team's injured reserve list.

Williams didn't catch his only target in 2019.
EDGE Analysis
Williams was brought up from the practice squad due to a plethora of wideout injuries, but he only played six offensive snaps. The 25-year-old is under contract for the 2020 season with no guaranteed money, and he'll face steep competition to make the final roster.

The Colts have promoted Williams to their active roster, Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan Indianapolis reports.
EDGE Analysis
Williams, who had been on the practice squad, will provide the team with added wideout depth after Chester Rogers landed on IR due to a knee injury, and with both T.Y. Hilton (calf) and Parris Campbell (hand) banged up heading into Week 14.

The Cardinals cut Williams on Friday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 2017 third-round pick hauled in 17 passes for 171 yards and one touchdown in 10 games last season, but failed to make the roster with a crowded receiver room. Williams could bring NFL experience and depth to another team this season.

Williams (undisclosed) caught his lone target for six yards in Thursday's preseason game against the Raiders.
EDGE Analysis
Williams was sidelined with a lower body, soft-tissue injury earlier in camp, but the fact he was on the field Thursday indicates he's recovered from the issue. The 24-year-old had 17 catches for 171 yards and one touchdown in 10 games last season, but he may have a tough time cracking the 53-man roster for 2019 following the additions of Andy Isabella, Hakeem Butler and KeeSean Johnson in April's draft.

Williams (undisclosed) returned to practice Monday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Williams has been sidelined for the better part of a week with an injury that coach Kliff Kingsbury described as a "lower [body] soft-tissue" injury. Such issues are commonplace for players ramping up their activity in the early days of training camp, but it hit Williams at an inopportune time. With the addition of rookie wide receivers Andy Isabella (knee), Hakeem Butler and KeeSean Johnson in the offseason, Williams' battle for a roster spot already was in serious jeopardy. Then, on the day Williams returned to drills in some capacity, the Cardinals signed veteran outside receiver Michael Crabtree. Williams has his work cut out for him as August proceeds, but first he'll have to get past his current injury to be cleared for preseason action.

Coach Kliff Kingsbury said Williams hasn't practice in training camp due to a "lower [body] soft tissue" injury, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Williams is already on the outside looking in for a roster spot in a crowded receiving corps, so he isn't helping the new coaching staff get a sense of his ability. Two seasons of intermittent tape also don't help, as the 2017 third-round pick has managed just 20 catches (on 53 targets) for 202 yards and one touchdown in 16 appearances. While the Cardinals may keep seven wideouts on the final 53-man roster, Williams likely is fighting for the very last one with Kevin White, Damiere Byrd and Pharoh Cooper.
