Williams was waived by the Packers on Tuesday, Matt Lombardo of Heavy On Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

Williams failed to make the team after he turned 11 carries into 60 yards this preseason. Additionally, Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports that the running back isn't expected to return to Green Bay's practice squad, so he'll be looking for a new team.

Williams had five carries for 24 yards in Friday's preseason game against the Saints.

EDGE Analysis

Williams has run the ball eight times through two exhibition contests, and he is averaging a healthy 6.6 yards per tote. While Williams has been effective, he did not take a carry until the second half in either game, and he remains fifth on the depth chart among healthy Packers running backs.

Williams signed a contract with the Packers on Wednesday, Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.

EDGE Analysis

Williams most recently played in the USFL for the Philadelphia Stars, but he started his professional career with the Packers. The 2019 sixth-round pick made seven appearances during his first two seasons with Green Bay, totaling 17 offensive snaps and 62 special-teams snaps. The Packers aren't planning on playing Aaron Jones or AJ Dillon during the preseason opener, and Kylin Hill (knee) remains on the PUP list, so the 25-year-old Williams will likely operate as an emergency back behind Patrick Taylor, Tyler Goodson and B.J. Baylor against the 49ers on Friday.

Williams (undisclosed) was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

EDGE Analysis

Williams was signed by the Browns off the Dolphins' practice squad Jan. 5, though he was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list the same day. His 2021 season is now over, though he did not appear in any games.

Williams (undisclosed) was signed by the Browns on Wednesday before promptly being placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list.

EDGE Analysis

The running back was signed off of the Dolphins practice squad before being put on the COVID list. Williams has spent time with many practice squads this season but has yet to play a snap in 2021.

Williams was signed to the Dolphins' practice squad Monday, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Williams is a candidate to be promoted for Week 15 due to the lack of healthy running back depth currently on Miami's active roster. The third-year running back hasn't appeared in a game this season and has just 19 rushing yards on seven attempts during his NFL career.

Williams was released from the Browns' practice squad Tuesday, Marla Ridenour of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

EDGE Analysis

Williams was added to the Browns' practice squad while they dealt with a COVID-19 outbreak to their running back room. Now that Nick Chubb and Demetric Felton are back, Williams finds himself as the odd man out. In a corresponding move, Cleveland re-signed John Kelly to its practice squad.

Williams was added to the Browns' practice squad Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

With Nick Chubb and Demetric Felton on the reserve/COVID-19 list, the Browns added Williams to provide some depth to their backfield. The 2019 sixth-round pick has spent time on both the Packers' and Giants' practice squads this season. Both Chubb and Felton could play in Sunday's contest if they are able to clear COVID-19 protocols, but it's possible Williams could split the backup role with Brian Hill in the event neither are cleared.

Williams has been cut from the Giants' practice squad, Aaron Wilson of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports.

EDGE Analysis

Williams rejoined the team's practice squad prior to Week 8. It was his second stint with the unit. He last suited up for a game in 2020 with the Packers.

The Giants re-signed Williams to the practice squad Friday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Williams is set for his second stint on the Giants' practice squad this season. He hasn't suited up for NFL action since appearing in three games with the Packers in 2020.
