Remains sidelined for Week 14
Williams (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bears, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: Williams will miss a second consecutive game due to his foot injury. Prior to getting hurt, the rookie third-round pick didn't exceed 33 receiving yards in any of his 11 appearances. Williams' next opportunity to take the field will come Sunday, Dec. 14 at Denver.

Still not practicing
Williams (foot) didn't practice Thursday.
Analysis: Williams initially was listed with a foot injury in advance of a Week 10 matchup with the Eagles, and while he played through it for three games, he hasn't taken part in any drills since Nov. 21. He thus appears in danger of missing a second contest in a row Sunday against the Bears, something that the Packers may confirm when they post their final Week 14 practice report Friday.

Won't play on Thanksgiving
Williams (foot) has been ruled out for Thursday's game at Detroit.
Analysis: Fellow wideout Matthew Golden (wrist) is listed as questionable, while Jayden Reed (foot/shoulder) will be out for at least one more week. Dontayvion Wicks could get a lot of snaps as the No. 3 receiver alongside Romeo Doubs and Christian Watson, especially if Golden is inactive again.

Doesn't practice Tuesday
Williams (foot) did not participate in Tuesday's walkthrough practice.
Analysis: Williams has opened the week with back-to-back DNPs due to a lingering foot injury, though Monday's session was an estimate, as the Packers didn't hold a practice. The rookie third-rounder has been managing a foot injury since early November, and with the Packers playing Thanksgiving Day against the Lions, he would likely have to practice Wednesday in at least a limited capacity to have a realistic shot at playing Thursday. If Williams is not cleared to play, then Malik Heath and Bo Melton…read more

Estimated as non-participant
Williams (foot) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's estimated practice report, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: Green Bay didn't hold an actual practice Monday, but the rookie third-round pick would not have been able to log on-field reps to begin Week 13 prep. Williams has regularly missed practices while playing through a foot injury the last two games, so, as long as he's able to log at least one limited session in advance of Thursday's divisional matchup against the Lions, he'll have a chance to take the field. If he's cleared to suit up Thanksgiving Day, Williams will handle a depth role on offense…read more

Suiting up Sunday
Williams (foot) is listed as active Sunday against the Vikings, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: Williams was able to play through a foot injury the last two games, and even after sandwiching DNPs around a limited practice Thursday this week, such activity was enough for him to be available to the banged-up Packers receiving corps Week 12. With Matthew Golden (shoulder/wrist, inactive) sitting out Sunday, Christian Watson (knee), Romeo Doubs (wrist), Dontayvion Wicks (calf) and Williams are the top active WRs for QB Jordan Love. Williams has at least one catch in each of the last four…read more

Questionable for Week 12
Williams (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Among the seven wide receivers listed on the Packers' Week 12 injury report, only Williams and Jayden Reed (foot/shoulder, IR) logged exactly one limited practice. Reed was ruled out Friday, and Williams may be the best bet to be inactive among the rest of the group after following a DNP/LP/DNP practice regimen this week. As for the rest of the receiving corps, Christian Watson (knee), Romeo Doubs (wrist) and Bo Melton (shoulder) don't carry designations, while Matthew Golden (shoulder/wrist)…read more

Not practicing Friday
Williams (foot) isn't practicing Friday, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: Williams will likely be listed as questionable, at best, when the Packers release their injury report later Friday, as the rookie third-round pick managed just one limited practice Thursday sandwiched between two absences. Green Bay is banged up at wide receiver, but even in the off chance Williams gets the green light Sunday against the Vikings, his contributions would likely be limited primarily to returning kickoffs on special teams.

Upgrades to limited practice
Williams (foot) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Williams missed Wednesday's session, but it looks like he has a chance to play through his lingering foot injury again Week 12. If Williams manages to upgrade to a full practice Friday, he could even avoid an injury designation entirely for Sunday's game against the Vikings. The rookie third-round pick's status will be relatively important for the Packers, given that six of the team's wide receivers appear on Thursday's injury report as limited participants.

Unable to practice Wednesday
Williams (foot) did not practice Wednesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Williams managed to play through his foot injury during Green Bay's win over the Giants in Week 11 and secure his only target for 33 yards, but it appears his availability is once again uncertain for Week 12. Meanwhile, fellow wideouts Romeo Doubs (wrist), Matthew Golden (wrist/shoulder), Christian Watson (knee) and Dontayvion Wicks (calf) were all limited in Wednesday's practice. Williams will have two more opportunities to upgrade his activity level at practice ahead of Sunday's home matchup…read more

Makes key play in win
Williams was targeted once and caught one pass for 33 yards in Sunday's 27-20 victory over the Giants. He also returned one kickoff for 33 yards.
Analysis: Williams did not see a pass go in his direction until the fourth quarter, but he made the most of his lone target, tallying the longest reception of his rookie season on a scoring drive that provided the Packers with the final margin of victory. Williams has been more involved in the box score than he was early in the campaign, but he logged only two snaps Sunday and six the week before, so his chances to produce remain limited.

Giving it a go Sunday
Williams (foot) is active for Sunday's Week 11 game against the Giants, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: Williams was limited in practice throughout the week due to a lingering foot injury. The rookie wideout will play through the issue for a second straight contest, though his already limited role on offense could be further reduced with fellow wideout Matthew Golden (shoulder) returning from a one-week absence.

Questionable for Sunday
Williams (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Giants, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: Williams completed the week of practice with a third limited session, and the rookie could once again look to play through injury, as he did Week 10 against the Eagles. The wide receiver caught a pair of targets for two receiving yards on six offensive snaps and added 57 kick-return yards on three special-teams snaps in last Sunday's loss. The 23-year-old will likely have similar usage if he is able to suit up for this Sunday's contest.

Limited again Thursday
Williams (foot) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: After holding the designation in Wednesday's walkthrough, Williams logged a limited practice Thursday as the rookie continues to deal with a foot injury. The wide receiver and backup kick returner played through the injury in Monday's loss to the Eagles and could do the same in Sunday's game against the Giants unless he is able to avoid an injury tag by practicing in full Friday.

Limited Wednesday
Williams (foot) was limited on Wednesday's estimated practice report.
Analysis: After losing to the Eagles on Monday night, Green Bay held a walkthrough Wednesday. Williams went into that loss dealing with a foot injury but was cleared to play. However, the rookie wideout played just six offensive snaps, catching two pass for two yards.

Two catches in loss
Williams caught both of his targets for two yards in Monday's 10-7 loss to the Eagles.
Analysis: Williams was minimally involved Monday, playing just six of the Packers' 68 offensive snaps in the contest. The rookie wideout has now recorded nine receptions on nine targets for 45 yards and a touchdown across nine games. With such limited usage, Williams remains far off the fantasy radar heading into a Week 11 matchup against the Giants.

Williams (foot) is active for Monday's game against the Eagles, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: Williams was limited in practice throughout the week, but his two partial sessions Friday and Saturday will be enough for him to suit up. Williams is likely to contribute primarily as a kick returner, though he could earn a couple of targets.

Questionable for MNF
Williams (foot) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Eagles, Wes Hodklewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: Williams ended the week with back-to-back limited practices while tending to a foot injury, and his official status for Monday night's game may not be known until the Packers announce their list of inactive players approximately 90 minutes before the 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff. The rookie third-rounder would be slated for an elevated role on offense if one or both of Dontayvion Wicks (calf) and Matthew Golden (shoulder) were to be ruled out for Week 10.

Back at practice Friday
Williams (foot) was a limited participant at practice Friday.
Analysis: Williams missed practice Thursday with a foot injury, so his activity Friday represents a step in the right direction ahead of Monday's game versus the Eagles. Even so, he'll likely have to practice in full Saturday to avoid getting tagged with an injury designation when Green Bay publishes its last practice report of the week.

Williams (foot) did not participate at practice Thursday.
Analysis: Williams caught both of his targets for 12 yards and failed to gain a yard on his only carry while also losing a fumble in the team's 16-13 loss to the Panthers in Week 9. The wide receiver may have picked up a foot injury in the process, leaving his status for Week 10 uncertain. Williams will have two more chances to return to practice prior to Monday night's matchup with the Eagles.

Claims first NFL touchdown
Williams took the field for 12 of the Packers' 64 snaps on offense and finished with a one-yard carry and an eight-yard touchdown reception on his lone target in Sunday's 35-25 win over the Steelers. He also returned four kickoffs for 97 yards.
Analysis: Williams' touchdown grab -- the first of his career -- came with 8:48 remaining in the third quarter and helped cut the Green Bay deficit to two points before the Packers ran away with the game in the fourth quarter. A 2025 third-round pick out of TCU, Williams boasts a big frame (6-foot-4, 222 pounds) and excellent size-adjusted athleticism (4.48-second 40-yard dash time), but he looks set to remain a situational player on offense during his rookie season. Instead, Williams is more likely to…read more

Limited to four snaps
Williams played four snaps in Sunday's 27-23 victory over the Cardinals.
Analysis: The third-round rookie is still filling only a bit role for Green Bay, and he has gotten only 11 total snaps on offense since the team's Week 5 bye. He could see a few more opportunities if Dontayvion Wicks (calf) misses any action, but he also figures to drop below Christian Watson (knee) on the depth chart when the latter returns in the next week or two.

Williams was limited in Wednesday's practice due to a groin injury.

Williams' practice participation over the next two days will provide clarity on his chances of playing against the Bengals on Sunday.

Two carries in Week 2 win
Williams rushed twice for 24 yards and had a 30-yard kickoff return in Thursday's 27-18 win over the Commanders.
Analysis: Williams got into the open field for a 16-yard gain on a direct snap in the fourth quarter and would have had even more yardage on the play had he not tripped on his own. The rookie third-round pick looks likely to be limited to gadget plays and special teams early on, as he has just one target through two games, though it's possible Williams' role as a wide receiver will expand in the absence of Jayden Reed (collarbone).

Works as kick returner
Williams caught one pass for two yards and returned two kicks for 39 yards in Sunday's 27-13 victory over the Lions.
Analysis: Williams -- a third-round pick in this year's NFL Draft -- played only three snaps on offense after missing a couple weeks of action with a hamstring injury, but he did get an opportunity to contribute on special teams in his professional debut. He could get more involved as the season wears on, but he will have his work cut out for him with quality depth in Green Bay's wide receiver room.

Williams (hamstring) is listed as active Sunday against the Lions, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: Williams has been battling a hamstring injury since mid-August, but after putting together a trio of three limited practices this week, the 2025 third-round pick will be available for his first NFL snap Sunday. Having said that, Green Bay's other wide receivers that were in the injury report -- Jayden Reed (foot) and Dontayvion Wicks (calf) -- also are active, so Williams may be on the outside looking in for snaps in a corps that includes rookie first-rounder Matthew Golden, Romeo Doubs and…read more

Questionable for potential debut
Williams (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Lions.
Analysis: William was listed as a limited participant all week and is one of three Green Bay wideouts with a questionable designation for Sunday. The rookie could get some snaps if he's active while Jayden Reed (calf) and Dontayvion Wicks (calf) are inactive, but Williams would still presumably be looking at a part-time role with minimal fantasy intrigue. A rookie third-round pick, Williams is noted for his work with the ball in his hands more so than his skill as a pass catcher.

Dealing with concussion
Williams is not practicing Friday due to a concussion, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Williams was reportedly having a nice start to training camp, according to Demovsky, but he figures to miss some time with the head injury. Green Bay used a third-round pick, 87th overall, on Williams in the 2025 Draft, but there's not a clear path to meaningful playing time as a rookie, even with Christian Watson rehabbing a torn ACL suffered last Week 18. The Packers still have a loaded wideout room that features Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed, Dontayvion Wicks and first-round rookie Matthew Golden.
