The Falcons placed RB Damien Williams on IR with his rib injury. He's out for at least the next 4 games and can be dropped from fantasy rosters. Rookie RB Tyler Allgeier now has a nice opportunity to carve out a role behind RB Cordarrelle Patterson.
According to multiple reports, the Raiders are signing RB Damien Williams. Las Vegas has obvious backfield questions, with Josh Jacobs not yet signing his franchise tender or returning to practice. It's not surprising that the team added a RB. It's interesting that the Raiders chose Williams, who is 31 and logged just 58 total touches over the past two seasons. Dalvin Cook, Kareem Hunt, Ezekiel Elliott, and Leonard Fournette remain on the open market (along with others, of course). So signing Williams might indicate the Raiders aren't too concerned about their backfield (or Jacobs?) and just need a cheap camp body. We'll certainly keep watching the whole situation. Just don't expect Williams' arrival to shake up our RB rankings.
The Falcons released RB Damien Williams. He's been out since going down with a rib injury in the season opener. Williams is “100% healthy and well rested," a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter. We'll see where Williams lands next, but he's obviously a big long shot for any 2022 fantasy value.
Falcons RB Damien Williams (ribs) is out for this weekend’s game vs. the Rams. That should mean that RB Tyler Allgeier makes his NFL debut on Sunday, but it’s unclear how big a role the rookie will play. Cordarrelle Patterson remains the only Atlanta RB worth using in fantasy lineups.
Falcons RB Damien Williams (rib) missed practice again on Thursday. He's in danger of missing this weekend's game vs. the Rams. Ashtun Edmonds of the team's official website confirms that RB Tyler Allgeier would "step into the running back rotation" if Williams can't play on Sunday.
Falcons RB Damien Williams (ribs) didn't practice on Wednesday. If he's unable to play vs. the Rams this weekend, we'd expect RB Tyler Allgeier to be active -- but for RB Cordarrelle Patterson to dominate backfield work.
