News

  • Works out for Houston

    The Texans brought Williams in for a workout Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC2 Houston reports.

    Analysis: Williams, who was let go last week by the Panthers, is drawing interest from several NFL teams. That the Texans had him in suggests they are not yet settled at wide receiver after bringing in several options at the position during free agency and the draft.

  • Let go by Carolina

    Williams was released by the Panthers on Thursday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Williams played Week 18 for the Panthers after spending the entirety of their season on the practice squad, but he saw only two offensive snaps and failed to see a target. The 26-year-old had also previously spent three seasons with the Dolphins. He will now need to seek out a new opportunity.

  • Staying with Dolphins

    Williams is re-signing with Miami on a one-year contract, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Williams is a 2019 UDFA who started seven of eight games as a rookie (32-428-3 on 60 targets) before suffering an ACL tear midway through the season. He then started seven of eight games again in 2020 -- albeit with lesser numbers (18-288-4) -- before suffering a season-ending foot injury. In 2021, Williams again played only eight games (three starts), but on account of smaller injuries and a few healthy scratches. After finishing last season with six catches for 71 yards, the soon-to-be…read more

  • Silent end to quiet season

    Williams (coach's decision) was inactive for Miami's win over the Patriots in Week 18.

    Analysis: Williams only suited up for eight games in 2021, as he was often a healthy scratch. In those appearances, he secured just six of 16 targets for 71 yards. The 24-year-old once looked like an ascending young talent for the Dolphins and potentially a locked-in starter, but since bursting onto the scene as a rookie in 2019 he's found himself steadily being eased out of the picture. Williams will be a restricted free agent this offseason.

  • Inactive Sunday

    Williams (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Patriots.

    Analysis: Williams missed Week 17 while on the reserve/COVID-19 list and is now a healthy scratch for the season finale. The 24-year-old will finish the 2021 campaign with six catches for 61 yards in eight games and will be a restricted free agent at the start of the offseason.

  • Full participant Thursday

    Williams (illness) fully participated in Thursday's practice session, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: Williams was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice after he was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday. However, he should be available Sunday against the Patriots since he practiced without limitations Thursday.

  • Limited practice Wednesday

    Williams (illness) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: The wide receiver was sidelined for the Dolphins' Week 17 loss to the Titans after testing positive for COVID-19 on Dec. 28, but he was reinstated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday. Williams isn't believed to have suffered a setback in his recovery from the virus; instead, his limited activity Wednesday was more likely conditioning-related. He'll still have a good chance at being available for Sunday's season finale against the Patriots.

  • Comes off COVID list

    The Dolphins reinstated Williams (illness) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday.

    Analysis: Williams' placement on the list last Tuesday prevented him from playing in Sunday's 34-3 loss to the Titans, but the third-year wideout should be ready to go heading into Miami's regular-season finale versus the Patriots this weekend. Even before he tested positive for the virus, Williams wasn't consistently active for the Dolphins on game days, so his return to the roster won't assure him of a spot in Miami's receiver rotation. Williams has appeared in eight games to date, recording six…read more

  • Hits COVID list

    Miami placed Williams on the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday.

    Analysis: Williams reportedly tested positive for the virus, per Adam Schefter of ESPN. The news comes one day after he was held without a catch in Miami's victory over the Saints. His availability for the Dolphins' Week 17 game in Tennessee is now up in the air.

  • Held without a catch

    Williams failed to secure either of his two targets during Thursday's 22-10 win over the Ravens.

    Analysis: Williams was at least active Thursday after having missed the Dolphins' previous two matchups for reasons unrelated to injury. However, it was Albert Wilson (4-87-0) and Isaiah Ford (4-84-0) who stepped in as replacements for DeVante Parker (shoulder) and Will Fuller (finger) alongside starter Jaylen Waddle. Coach Brian Flores said that Fuller has made recent recovery progress and could even return for Week 11, so it's possible that Williams' already-thin offensive opportunities could soon…read more

  • Will play Thursday

    Coach Brian Flores said Monday that Williams will be available for Thursday's game against the Ravens, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Williams has been listed as a healthy scratch in back-to-back games. In Week 8 versus the Bills, his absence was noted as disciplinary-related, but Flores said that wasn't the case for Week 9. Given the murky circumstances surrounding Williams' recent lack of availability, it's hard to estimate how significant a role he'll play Thursday, even with Will Fuller (finger) and DeVante Parker (shoulder) both out.

  • Surprise healthy scratch Week 9

    Williams (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Texans.

    Analysis: Williams was also a healthy inactive for the Dolphins' Week 8 loss to the Bills, but his absence from the lineup was attributed to a disciplinary matter on that occasion. The third-year wideout was a full participant in practice this week, but he apparently isn't yet back in the good graces of the coaching staff, as he'll be in street clothes once again. With DeVante Parker (shoulder) heading to injured reserve Friday, the Dolphins will be left with receiver Jaylen Waddle, tight end Mike…read more

  • Slated to practice this week

    Coach Brian Flores said Monday that Williams (coach's decision) will return to practice this week, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.

    Analysis: Williams was held out of Sunday's loss to the Bills for disciplinary reasons, but it appears as though he'll be back in action for the team's Week 9 matchup against the Texans on Sunday. The 25-year-old has hauled in five of 12 targets for 67 yards across three appearances in 2021.

  • Benched due to discipline

    Williams (coach's decision) was ruled out of Sunday's contest against the Bills due to discipline, Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post reports.

    Analysis: Williams didn't travel with the team to Buffalo and was ruled out Saturday, but the team revealed Sunday that his absence was due to discipline issues. Mack Hollins will likely operate as the Dolphins No. 3 wideout during their divisional matchup with the Bills.

  • Out Sunday

    Williams didn't travel with the team and won't play Sunday against Buffalo due to an unspecified reason, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.

    Analysis: In addition to Williams, defensive back Sheldrick Redwine was abruptly ruled out from making the trip to Buffalo. With Williams sidelined for the Week 8 matchup, Mack Hollins is likely the next man up to join DeVante Parker (shoulder/hamstring) and Jaylen Waddle in three-receiver sets.

  • Rough outing vs. Falcons

    Williams caught one of four targets for five yard during Sunday's 30-28 loss to Atlanta.

    Analysis: Williams returned to action Sunday after having missed time due to a groin injury, but he was inefficient with his targets to say the least. DeVante Parker (shoulder) and Will Fuller (groin) could both return to action soon, and when that happens Williams will stand to move back down to a depth role on offense.

  • Back in action Sunday

    Williams (groin) is active for Sunday's game against the Falcons.

    Analysis: Back from a one-game absence and suiting up for just the third time all season, Williams could immediately step back into a key role in Miami's pass-catching group. With DeVante Parker (hamstring) sidelined for a third straight contest, Jaylen Waddle is locked in as the team's top wideout, while tight end Mike Gesicki should also be heavily involved coming off a nine-catch outing Week 6. After those two, Williams could find himself next in line for targets over receivers Mack Hollins, Albert…read more

  • Questionable for Week 7

    The Dolphins list Williams (groin) as questionable for Sunday's game against the Falcons, Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post reports.

    Analysis: Limited in the first two practices of the week due to the groin issue, Williams apparently didn't do enough of the field Friday to head into the weekend without a designation. That said, the fact that he practiced in at least some capacity each of the last three days suggests that Williams is trending in the right direction for Sunday's game, after his injury prevented him from playing in the Week 6 loss to Jacksonville. DeVante Parker (shoulder/hamstring) is also listed as questionable, and if…read more

  • Reps capped for second straight day

    Williams (groin) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The groin injury prevented Williams from playing in last week's loss to the Jaguars in London, but with consecutive limited practices to begin Week 7 prep, he's seemingly putting himself on a good path to suit up Sunday against the Falcons. DeVante Parker (hamstring/shoulder) was also limited for the second straight day, so Miami could have most of its key pass-catching options available this weekend with the exception of Will Fuller (finger), who remains on injured reserve.

  • Limited by groin issue

    Williams (groin) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Since Williams' groin injury prevented him from playing in last week's loss to the Jaguars in London, he may need to upgrade to full participation in practice Thursday and/or Friday in order to gain clearance for Sunday's game against the Falcons. If he suits up Sunday, Williams likely would step into a starting role at receiver with Will Fuller (finger) on injured reserve and DeVante Parker (shoulder/hamstring) looking iffy for the Week 7 matchup.

  • Won't play Sunday

    Williams (groin) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

    Analysis: With Will Fuller (finger), DeVante Parker (shoulder/hamstring) and Williams all out, Jaylen Waddle is slated to head Miami's depleted Week 6 wideout corps, while Albert Wilson, Mack Hollins, Isaiah Ford and Kirk Merritt are candidates to see added opportunities Sunday in an offense that welcomes back QB Tua Tagovailoa (ribs) from IR.

  • Questionable with Parker out

    Williams (groin) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

    Analysis: If Williams suits up, he could play a substantial role in the Dolphins offense with DeVante Parker (shoulder) already having been ruled out. Williams likely suffered the groin injury in practice this week and consequently was a limited participant both Thursday and Friday. Those relying on Parker in fantasy will need to set their alarms Sunday, as his game will kick off at 9:30 a.m. ET from Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in England.

  • Added to report with groin injury

    Williams was a limited participant in Thursday's practice due to a groin injury, Hal Habib of The Palm Beach Post reports.

    Analysis: Williams didn't appear on the Dolphins' initial Week 6 injury report released Wednesday, so his addition to the report a day later could be an indication that he tweaked his groin during Thursday's session. After sitting out three of the Dolphins' first four games while working back from early season foot and knee issues, Williams appeared to have a breakthrough performance Week 5 against the Buccaneers, playing 73 percent of the offensive snaps while catching three of five targets for 60…read more

  • Three catches in blowout loss

    Williams caught three of five targets for 60 yards in Sunday's 45-17 loss to Tampa Bay.

    Analysis: Williams played a larger role with DeVante Parker (hamstring) joining Will Fuller (finger) on the sidelines. In addition to his three catches, Williams drew a pass interference penalty on Richard Sherman in the end zone, setting up Myles Gaskin's second receiving touchdown of the game. He'll face the Jaguars in London in Week 6.

  • More opportunities could arrive

    Williams, who was a healthy scratch Week 4, could be destined for an increased role on offense after Will Fuller (finger) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Williams doesn't boast much utility on special teams, so it was difficult for the Dolphins to justify making him active for the Week 4 loss to the Colts. The roster now has a different context, however, with Will Fuller (finger) landing on IR and with Jakeem Grant having been traded to the Bears. With Albert Wilson having also been ineffective through four weeks, Williams could have a clear path not only to being active versus Tampa Bay on Sunday, potentially slotting in as th No. 3 or 4…read more

    Williams is inactive for Sunday's game against the Colts.

  • Little doing in return to action

    Williams secured one of three targets for two yards during Sunday's 35-0 loss to the Bills.

    Analysis: Williams didn't have many opportunities to make a splash Sunday, as Jacoby Brissett struggled mightily in relief of Tua Tagovailoa (ribs) while facing down Buffalo's stout defense. Per David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel, Williams feels completely healthy after making his 2021 season debut. The Dolphins could opt to ramp up Williams' involvement as the season progresses, and he only handled 30 percent of offensive snaps versus the Bills, but he'll be even more pressed for…read more

  • Cleared for 2021 debut

    Williams (foot) is active for Sunday's game against the Bills.

    Analysis: Williams fit a full practice between limited showings Wednesday and Friday, and it looks like that'll be enough for him to gain clearance for his 2021 debut. Even though Will Fuller (personal) is absent for a second straight game, Williams won't necessarily step into a high-volume role outside opposite No. 1 wideout DeVante Parker. Rookie first-round pick Jaylen Waddle and veteran Albert Wilson both played more than 40 percent of the Dolphins' offensive snaps Week 1, and it's possible Williams…read more

    Williams (foot/knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Bills after logging a limited practice Friday, Daniel Oyefusi of The Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Williams sat out Week 1 due to the foot injury but seemed to be out of the woods after practicing fully Thursday. Unfortunately, he took a step back with a limited practice Friday and is now dealing with a knee injury in addition to the foot issue. With fellow wide receiver Will Fuller (personal) already ruled out, DeVante Parker and rookie Jaylen Waddle should once again lead the Dolphins' receiving corps, with Albert Wilson and Jakeem Grant in line for expanded roles in the event Williams…read more

  • Looks ready for Week 2

    Williams (foot) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: After a trio of limited practices last week, Williams sat out the Dolphins' season-opening win over the Patriots while he continued to recover from the foot surgery he underwent last November. He was limited again to kick off Week 2 prep, but his ability to log a full session Thursday puts him on track to make his 2021 debut Sunday against Buffalo. Though Williams had been a starter for Miami prior to sustaining his season-ending injury in 2020, he'll likely be relegated to a depth role after…read more

    Williams (foot) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Williams was limited in practice all of last week before sitting out Miami's season-opening win over New England. Even if he suits up Sunday against the Bills, he would presumably be behind DeVante Parker, Jaylen Waddle and Will Fuller in the pecking order at receiver.

  • Sitting out Week 1

    Williams (foot) is inactive for Sunday's Week 1 matchup against the Patriots.

    Analysis: Williams managed to practice in limited fashion all week but reportedly was trending toward sitting out, which now has proven to be the case. The speedy 24-year-old is still likely working his way back to full health after the foot surgery that cut short his 2020 campaign, and on Sunday his absence could lead to some additional snaps for Albert Wilson behind the top wideout trio of DeVante Parker, Jaylen Waddle and Jakeem Grant.

  • May end up sitting Week 1

    Williams (foot) remains listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Patriots, but he's not expected to be active for the contest, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: The third-year wideout is still working back from the foot surgery that cut his 2020 campaign short, and he doesn't seem to have demonstrated enough progress in practice this week for the Dolphins to sign off on him playing Week 1. The Dolphins will still likely wait and see how Williams fares in a pregame workout before an official decision on his status is announced around 2:55 p.m. ET, when Miami is expected to release its inactive list.

    Analysis: Williams' recovery from the foot surgery that cut his 2020 season short is still ongoing. If he's able to suit up, Williams -- who practiced in a limited fashion all week -- could see some extra opportunities due to the absence of Will Fuller, who's suspended for Week 1.

  • Limited to start week

    Williams was a limited practice participant Wednesday due to a foot injury, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Working his way back from last year's season-ending foot surgery, Williams was removed from the PUP list Aug. 19 and played in a preseason game Aug. 29. The latter occurrence might seem to suggest he'll play Week 1, but it'll still be worth monitoring practice reports after such a lengthy rehab from surgery. Will Fuller (suspension) isn't eligible to play this week, while DeVante Parker, Jaylen Waddle, Jakeem Grant and Albert Wilson all are healthy.

  • Jumps back into game action Sunday

    Williams failed to bring in either of his two targets in the Dolphins' 29-26 preseason win over the Bengals on Sunday.

    Analysis: While he ultimately failed to crack the stat sheet, the fact Williams was able to get back into game action for the first time since suffering his foot injury Week 9 of last season certainly was encouraging. He was coming on when he went on the shelf in 2020 -- he recorded a touchdown grab in three of four games before being sidelined -- and he'll now look ahead to picking up where he left off when he and the Dolphins tangle with the Patriots in a Week 1 battle on Sunday, Sept. 12.

    Williams (foot) is in uniform and is set to play in Sunday's preseason finale against the Bengals, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: Williams was mostly limited at practice since being activated from the PUP list Aug. 19, and it appears he'll take the field for Sunday's exhibition matchup at Cincinnati. It'll be an opportunity to receive some reps for the 24-year-old after missing the start of camp while rehabbing from November foot surgery.

  • Ramping up workload

    Williams (foot) will have his practice reps increased this week, Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post reports.

    Analysis: Coach Brian Flores mentioned Tuesday that Williams, who has been limited since coming off the PUP list Aug. 19, will get more work in team drills during the coming days. Williams began his career with the Dolphins as a starter, but after back-to-back season-ending injuries it now looks like he may only be fifth on the depth chart behind Jaylen Waddle, DeVante Parker (undisclosed), Will Fuller (foot/suspension) and Albert Wilson (undisclosed).

  • Limited in first camp practice

    Williams (foot) was limited to individual drills at Thursday's practice after being removed from the PUP list, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Williams hopes to return to team drills soon, but he may need some time to ramp up following his extended absence while rehabbing from November foot surgery. He was a starter for Miami his first two years in the league, but both seasons ended early with severe injuries, and the team now has Will Fuller (foot/suspension) and Jaylen Waddle joining DeVante Parker at wide receiver. Throw in a strong summer for Albert Wilson and it's possible Williams enters the season only fifth or sixth on Miami's…read more

    Williams (foot) was removed from the PUP list Thursday, Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post reports.

    Analysis: It means he's passed a physical and has clearance to begin practicing, though he'll likely be limited after the long layoff. Williams had foot surgery last November and missed the entire offseason program, not to mention his slide down the depth chart after Miami added Will Fuller and Jaylen Waddle this offseason. Williams probably still has a roster spot, but perhaps as the fourth/fifth receiver rather than the starting assignment he handled in his first two professional seasons, both of which…read more

    Williams (foot) has been activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list.

    Analysis: Prior to being placed on the COVID list, Williams, who's bouncing back from November foot surgery, had been on the Dolphins' preseason PUP list. Though he's no longer in the league's COVID protocols, it remains unclear when Williams might return to the field. Miami's wideout depth chart is currently headed by DeVante Parker, Will Fuller and Jaylen Waddle.

    Analysis: Williams, who is bouncing back from November foot surgery, previously was placed the preseason PUP list, and it's unclear at this time when he'll be cleared to take the field. While Williams remains sidelined, the Dolphins announced Monday that fellow wideout DeVante Parker (undisclosed) has been activated off the PUP list.

  • Lands on PUP list

    Williams (foot) is on the PUP list for the start of training camp, Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post reports.

    Analysis: Coming back from November foot surgery, Williams was kept off the practice field during the offseason program and still isn't ready at the start of training camp. The 2019 UDFA has caught 50 passes, including seven TDs, through 16 NFL games, but both of his seasons came to an early end on account of major injuries, including a torn ACL in 2019. Now 24 and entering his third pro season, Williams faces tougher competition for playing time after the Dolphins added Will Fuller (suspension) and…read more

  • Doesn't participate in minicamp

    Williams (foot) participated in the Dolphins' voluntary offseason program but didn't practice at June minicamp, The Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: The Dolphins may have planned this all along, but it's also possible Williams aggravated his foot injury or dealt with a new issue during OTAs. He had season-ending foot surgery in November, after requiring a procedure for a torn ACL the previous year. Williams now enters his third pro season facing fierce competition for playing time, as the Dolphins added Will Fuller and No. 6 overall pick Jaylen Waddle in the offseason. The team also has DeVante Parker, who topped 1,200 yards two years ago,…read more

  • Puts forth practice

    Williams (foot) was on the field for Wednesday's practice, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Coming back from November foot surgery, Williams appears to be on track for the start of training camp. His health is probably less of an issue than his competition for snaps, after the Dolphins added Will Fuller and Jaylen Waddle this offseason. Williams has shown signs of developing into a solid NFL starter, but he might have to settle for the third or fourth receiver spot this season.

    Williams (foot) looks set to enter the 2021 season in a depth role, Mike Clay of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Williams quickly earned himself a starting spot in Miami as an undrafted rookie back in 2019, but after back-to-back seasons in which injuries limited him to eight games, the team had to explore other options. This offseason has seen long-time starter DeVante Parker joined by explosive playmakers Will Fuller (suspension) and Jaylen Waddle, all three of whom stand to be prioritized in three-wide sets.

  • Recovering from surgery

    Williams underwent surgery on his foot in November, Barry Jackson of The Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: The procedure was his second season-ending surgery in as many years, though the Dolphins never revealed the extent of Williams' foot injury when he was placed on injured reserve in mid-November. The young wideout scored four touchdowns in eight appearances before he hurt his foot, but he averaged just 4.4 targets and 36 yards per game, returning to action 10 months after his rookie season ended with an ACL tear. The Dolphins expect Williams to be healthy for the start of the 2021 campaign,…read more

  • Still not practicing

    Williams (foot) isn't participating in Wednesday's practice, Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Dolphins head coach Brian Flores has said that Williams isn't shut down for the season, but at this point, the second-year wideout doesn't seem to have a realistic shot to play Week 17 against the Bills. Williams could have a better shot at returning to the field in the postseason, should the Dolphins earn a playoff berth. Through eight games before landing on injured reserve, Williams secured 18 of 35 targets for 288 yards and four touchdowns.

    Dolphins head coach Brian Flores confirmed Williams (foot) won't be available to play Saturday against the Raiders, Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post reports.

    Analysis: Flores noted that Williams hasn't been shut down for the season, but at this stage, a return for the postseason looks to be the wideout's focus at this point rather than making it back for a Week 17 matchup with the Bills on Jan. 3. Since landing on injured reserve Nov. 11 with the foot injury, Williams has yet to resume practicing.

  • Return uncertain

    Dolphins head coach Brian Flores suggested Wednesday that Williams (foot) remains in recovery mode and is uncertain to return from injured reserve before the end of the regular season, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Flores didn't rule out the possibility of Williams making a late-season return, but for now, the wideout's activation doesn't appear imminent. If the Dolphins make the playoffs, Williams would have more time to heal up from his foot injury and get back on the field, but his chances of playing again during the regular season seem to be growing slimmer. With Jakeem Grant (undisclosed) and Malcolm Perry (chest) both banged up, Miami could certainly benefit from Williams' potential return.

  • Headed to IR

    Dolphins head coach Brian Flores said Wednesday that Williams (foot) will be placed on injured reserve, Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald reports. "[Williams' injury is] more significant than we thought," Flores said.

    Analysis: Flores was unwilling to speculate if the foot injury Williams sustained in Sunday's 34-31 win over the Cardinals would sideline him for the rest of the season, but the receiver's move to IR means that he'll miss at least three games. With Williams shut down through the end of the month, Flores specifically mentioned Jakeem Grant, Mack Hollins and Lynn Bowden as the main candidates to see more work alongside No. 1 receiver DeVante Parker.

    Williams (foot) is considered day-to-day, Cameron Wolfe of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Williams injured his foot in the second quarter of Sunday's eventual win at Arizona and was carted off the field. X-rays came back negative, leading the Dolphins to believe he's dealing with a sprain, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. It's unclear if Williams will be available Week 10 against the Chargers, but the decision likely will come down to how many practice reps the 2019 undrafted free agent can handle in the coming days.

    Analysis: The Dolphins believe Williams escaped with a sprain, though it could be a relatively severe one given that he was carted off the field during the second quarter of Sunday's win over the Cardinals. He was on track for a huge game before the injury, catching four of five targets for 60 yards and a touchdown on 17 snaps.

  • Ruled out to return

    Williams (foot) has been ruled out to return to Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Cameron Wolfe of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Williams' foot injury comes at an especially inopportune time, as he had four grabs for 60 yards and a score during the first half and appeared to have been manufacturing solid chemistry with rookie quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. Per Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post, initial medical evaluations have diagnosed Williams with a sprain. The second-year pro was limited to eight appearances as a rookie due to an ACL tear.

  • Carted off after TD grab

    Williams was carted off the field during the second quarter of Sunday's game against the Cardinals due to a foot injury and is questionable to return, Adam H. Beasley of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Williams had four catches for 60 yards on five targets before being forced out Sunday, including a nine-yard helicopter score. If the second-year pro is unable to return against Arizona, it will fall to a combination of Jakeem Grant, Malcolm Perry and Mack Hollins to pick up the slack behind top wideout DeVante Parker.

  • Held to two catches again

    Williams hauled in two of five targets for 15 yards during Sunday's 28-17 win over the Rams.

    Analysis: Williams has now been held to two receptions in back-to-back games, and he's failed to exceed 20 yards in four of seven contests. Granted, rookie quarterback Tua Tagovailoa only passed for 93 yards in his first NFL start, as Sunday featured a strange game script in which Miami got to nurse a lead courtesy of both defensive and special-teams touchdowns. The second-year pro will get a chance to demonstrate more on-field chemistry with Tagovailoa in Arizona in Week 9.

  • Finds end zone Sunday

    Williams caught two of three targets for 18 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-0 win over the Jets.

    Analysis: The Dolphins' passing game mostly went into the tank after taking a 21-0 lead into halftime, but Williams was able to cash in early to salvage his production. The second-year receiver has found the end zone in three of the last four games, and if the groin injury DeVante Parker suffered Sunday doesn't heal up over the team's Week 7 bye, Williams could find himself as Ryan Fitzpatrick's top option for a game or two.

    Analysis: Williams got off to a quiet start to the 2020 season while coming off an ACL tear, but he looked to be at full form during Sunday's upset win. The second-year pro set the tone on Miami's first play of the game with a 47-yard catch from Ryan Fitzpatrick. His 106 receiving yards were a career high, and Williams also surpassed his total combined yardage through the first four games of the season.

  • To be more involved in offense

    Offensive coordinator Chan Gailey said Tuesday that the Dolphins are trying to get Williams more involved in the passing game, Hal Habib of The Palm Beach Post reports. "We're hoping to continue to work with him to get him some catches. We know he can be a weapon, we know he should be a weapon ... we need him to," Gailey said.

    Analysis: Williams has been an afterthought in the Dolphins offense through four weeks, ranking fifth on the team in target share behind even running back Myles Gaskin. He has not caught more than two passes in any game this season and his catch rate checks in at just 35 percent. The Dolphins will try to up his involvement in the offense, though part of that will depend on Williams creating separation and presenting a viable target for the quarterback.

  • Held to one catch versus Seattle

    Williams secured one of three targets for 15 yards during Sunday's 31-23 loss to the Seahawks.

    Analysis: Quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick delivered both DeVante Parker and Isaiah Ford double-digit targets, leaving Williams and tight end Mike Gesicki mostly uninvolved in the passing game. Williams hasn't enjoyed much fantasy relevance outside of a Week 3 contest in which he scored (but only managed seven yards). The second-year pro is off to a slow start to the 2020 season, so he'll be difficult to trust for fantasy purposes unless he can string together a few consistent performances.

  • Catches first TD of season

    Williams brought in both his targets for seven yards and a touchdown in the Dolphins' 31-13 win over the Jaguars on Thursday.

    Analysis: Williams was able to salvage what would have been a complete wash-out of a night for fantasy managers with his three-yard touchdown grab in the first quarter. The Colorado State product has struggled to make an impact in new coordinator Chan Gailey's offense thus far, posting just five catches on 14 targets through three games. The solid amount of looks is encouraging, and Williams may be able to start converting them into better production the more he familiarizes himself with the scheme.…read more

    Williams hauled in one of five targets for 26 yards during Sunday's 33-28 loss to the Bills.

    Analysis: Among the four targets that Williams failed to secure was a would-be short touchdown despite Ryan Fitzpatrick putting the ball squarely in his hands. Through two contests the second-year pro has just three catches on 12 targets, a dismal ratio even when factoring in that he's faced two of the league's top defenses (Buffalo and New England).

    Williams hauled in two of seven targets for 41 yards during Sunday's 21-11 loss to the Patriots.

    Analysis: Williams wasn't able to make much happen against New England's elite secondary, even with DeVante Parker (hamstring) having been forced off the field during the first half. Still, it's somewhat encouraging that Williams was able to command seven targets in his first return to action since suffering a torn ACL. He'll act as Miami's de facto No. 1 receiver if Parker is forced to miss any more time, though Week 2 will bring another difficult matchup against Buffalo.

DeVante Parker (hamstring) and Mike Gesicki (glute) also logged full practices, so Williams will join a Dolphins' receiving corps ready to begin the season at full health.

    Analysis: Williams has reportedly remained setback-free since being cleared for full football activities earlier this summer after suffering a season-ending ACL tear midway through his rookie campaign.

The second-year wideout still looks on track to suit up against the Patriots this weekend, when he'll occupy a starting role across from DeVante Parker (hamstring).

The wideout's status for Week 1 remains undetermined, but he at least appears to be progressing from his ACL tear exactly as the Dolphins anticipated.

Despite going undrafted last year, Williams earned a Week 1 starting job and was on pace for a 64-856-6 receiving line (120 targets) before an ACL tear ended his season Week 9.

    Analysis: Williams suffered what was called a sprained right knee during Sunday's win against the Jets, which will cut his rookie campaign short after eight games. He's flashed so far in his brief career, hauling in 32 of 60 targets for 428 yards and two touchdowns. Per Adam H. Beasley of the Miami Herald, coach Brian Flores didn't offer a timetable on when Williams might be healthy, so there's a chance the wide receiver has to devote much of his offseason to rehab and recovery.

    Analysis: The team will do additional testing to determine the extent of the damage, but the hope is it's no worse than a sprained knee. That would likely mean the undrafted rookie misses additional time, although the exact recovery timeline will be determined by the results of the MRI. This was Williams' best game of the season, as he posted five receptions for 72 yards and two touchdowns.

The rookie's second malady of the day now comes in the form of a knee issue, the severity of which caused him to be carted to the locker room.
