2025 Fantasy Outlook
Through two seasons as a pro, the 2023 third-round pick has started 17 of his 25 appearances while logging more than 70 percent of his snaps in the slot. Williams also boasts 81 tackles, three interceptions among 11 pass defenses and one forced fumble on his resume. He'll continue to hold down the fort at nickel cornerback for the Cardinals in the upcoming campaign. Read Past Outlooks
Torn Achilles confirmed
Williams tore his Achilles in Week 16 against Atlanta, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.
ANALYSIS
This confirms the initial fear after Williams had to be carted off the field Sunday versus the Falcons. Williams was placed on IR on Tuesday and now faces a lengthy recovery. Kei'Trel Clark may move into a starting cornerback role for the final two games of the regular season.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
The Cardinals landed Williams in the third round of this year's draft, but his ongoing recovery from an Oct. 29 ACL tear forced him to begin his pro career on the active/non-football injury list. Once he's healthy, he may have a tough time breaking into an outside cornerback rotation that includes Marco Wilson, Rashad Fenton and Antonio Hamilton. Still, the draft capital invested in Williams may result in some fruitful outings in 2023.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could be Day 2 pick
Williams is progressing well in his recovery from a torn ACL and could be selected in the second or third rounds of Thursday's NFL Draft, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
The Syracuse cornerback might have been in the conversation for a first-round pick had he not suffered a knee injury in late October during a game against Notre Dame. Williams went the final two years of his college career without getting flagged for a penalty, highlighting his instincts and technique when healthy.
