The Packers waived Willis on Sunday, Jim Owczarski of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
Willis joined the Packers via waivers back in April, but he ultimately wasn't able to parlay his opportunity into a spot on the roster for training camp. The 24-year-old will look to latch on in a depth capacity with another organization. He appeared in two games with the Dolphins as a rookie last season.

Willis was promoted to Miami's active roster Wednesday, Barry Jackson of The Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Willis figures to make his NFL debut after being promoted to the Dolphins' active roster. The 24-year-old defensive tackle will add depth along Miami's defensive line, though Willis' eventual impact figures to be missed in most fantasy formats.

Willis has been sidelined with a calf injury since rookie minicamp, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic
EDGE Analysis
Willis signed a three-year contract with the Ravens as an undrafted free agent earlier this month. It's unclear at this time how serious the injury is, but Willis was expected to have a legitimate shot at making the team's final roster despite going undrafted.

Willis signed a three-year contract with the Ravens on Friday, Jonas Shaffer of the Baltimore Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Willis qualifies as one of the premier undrafted free agent signings, as he was widely expected to be drafted as early as the second or third round. Character concerns were presumably the reason for his fall, as he had a somewhat checkered history prior to his breakout 2018 season for Miami. He will now look to earn himself a role on the Ravens' defensive line.
