News

  • Piles up double-digit stops

    Williams had 11 tackles (six solo) during Sunday's 20-19 loss to the Steelers.

    Analysis: Through seven appearances leading up to Week 13's loss, Williams hadn't recorded a single game with more than three tackles, so Sunday's explosion onto the IDP fantasy radar came out of left field. The veteran nose tackle isn't normally a strong candidate for fantasy utility, but he is set for a strong matchup against a run-heavy Browns offense Week 14.

  • Active Sunday night

    Williams (shoulder) is active for Sunday night's game against Cleveland.

    Analysis: Williams put in two limited practices during the week before sitting out Friday, but that appears to have been simply a rest day. He'll return after a three-game absence.

  • Questionable after missed practice

    Williams (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Browns.

    Analysis: Williams was unable to participate in practice Friday, suggesting that he's likely in line for a fourth consecutive absence come Sunday. The questionable tag gives him some hope, though, so Williams' status will bear monitoring ahead of the clash between AFC North rivals. Having Williams on the interior of the defensive line would undoubtedly help the Ravens slow Cleveland's potent rushing attack.

  • Out again

    Williams (shoulder) will remain sidelined for Sunday's game against the Bears.

    Analysis: Williams' absence will mark his third straight game missed due to a shoulder injury. As a result, Justin Ellis should presumably again see an increased role.

  • Remains sidelined

    Williams (shoulder) is inactive for Thursday's game against Miami.

    Analysis: Williams is set to miss his second consecutive game due to the shoulder issue, and his status remains uncertain given that he did not practice Wednesday. Justin Ellis should take over an increased role in Williams' absence.

  • Won't play Week 9

    Williams (shoulder) is inactive for Sunday's contest against the Vikings.

    Analysis: Williams was able to log a limited practice Friday after not practicing Wednesday or Thursday, but he will still be sidelined Sunday. Justin Ellis is expected to start at nose tackle for the Ravens, while Kahlil McKenzie and Broderick Washington will likely see increased snaps from their reserve roles.

  • Activated off COVID-19 list

    The Ravens activated Williams from the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday, Luke Jones of WNST reports.

    Analysis: Williams was deemed a close contact to Jaylon Ferguson -- who tested positive for COVID-19 -- and was inactive for Sunday's contest against the Lions. The 32-year-old was also dealing with a minor neck injury that he sustained in Week 2, so he still has to recover from that before he can get back into the mix against Denver in Week 4.

  • Placed on COVID-19 list

    The Ravens placed Williams (undisclosed) on the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday.

    Analysis: Williams picked up a neck strain Week 2, which didn't allow him to practice Wednesday before he returned in a limited capacity Thursday. Now, with a positive test in the Ravens' facilities -- Jaylon Ferguson (illness) -- Williams has been deemed to be a close contact, at the very least. As such, Williams, Justin Houston (undisclosed) and Justin Madubuike (undisclosed) are unlikely to be available Sunday in Detroit.

  • Questionable to return

    Williams is questionable to return to Sunday's game against Kansas City due to a neck strain.

    Analysis: Williams didn't have a significant impact early in Sunday's Week 2 matchup, and he was banged up in the third quarter. Justin Ellis should see additional work while the 32-year-old is sidelined.

  • Expected to stay with Ravens

    Ravens GM Eric DeCosta said Tuesday that he expects Williams to remain with the Ravens for the 2021 season, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The Ravens would free up roughly $7.5 million in salary-cap space by cutting Williams outright, but DeCosta believes Williams is a key part of the team's defense. The 32-year-old nose tackle started all 13 games that he played last season, posting 33 tackles and two pass breakups.

  • Ready for Week 13

    Williams (ankle) is active for Tuesday's game against the Cowboys.

    Analysis: Williams received the questionable tag due to the ankle injury, but he'll return to the field after missing the past two games. The 31-year-old should return to his starting role at nose tackle for the Ravens.

  • Likely to play Tuesday

    Williams (ankle), who is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Cowboys, is expected to play, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Williams has missed the Ravens' last two games, sitting out the team's Week 11 loss to the Titans with the ankle injury and then missing the Week 12 loss to the Steelers after landing on the reserve/COVID-19 list. He's since been reinstated from the list, but Williams was troubled enough by the ankle issue in practice this week for the Ravens to designate him as questionable. Fortunately for the Ravens, the run-stuffing defensive tackle looks like he'll be able to play, but official…read more

  • Won't play Wednesday

    Williams (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Steelers.

    Analysis: The 31-year-old was activated off the reserve/COVID-19 list earlier Tuesday, but the ankle injury will prevent him from being available for Wednesday's divisional matchup. Justin Ellis is poised for another start at nose tackle in Williams' absence.

  • Lifted from COVID list

    The Ravens activated Williams (ankle) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday, Ryan Mink of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Williams missed last week's game against the Titans because of an ankle injury, and there's no evidence that he's recovered from that issue, as he didn't practice at all last week after being listed as a high-risk close contact to an infected person. However, if his ankle is healthy enough, Williams is expected to start at nose tackle in Wednesday's matchup against the Steelers.

  • Lands on COVID-19 list

    Williams (ankle) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday, Aaron Kasinitz of PennLive.com reports.

    Analysis: The 31-year-old missed Sunday's loss to the Titans with the ankle injury, but he'll now be on the COVID-19 list for at least five days as a high-risk close contact of an infected individual. Justin Ellis is poised for another heavy workload in Williams' absence Thursday versus the Steelers.

  • Won't face Tennessee

    Williams (ankle) is inactive heading into Sunday's matchup against the Titans, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Williams emerged from the practice week listed as doubtful, and it's now been confirmed the 2018 Pro Bowler will be unavailable Week 11. He hurt his ankle on Sunday Night Football against the Patriots, opening the door for Justin Ellis to garner a season-high 47 defensive snaps in the contest. Williams' next opportunity to suit up will come Thanksgiving night against Pittsburgh.

  • Unlikely to play Sunday

    Williams (ankle) isn't expected to play Sunday against Tennessee, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: The 31-year-old didn't practice this week and is officially listed as doubtful, and he apparently hasn't progressed much since the release of Friday's injury report. The Ravens are also expected to be without Calais Campbell (calf). Justin Ellis is poised to receive the start at nose tackle, assuming Williams is inactive.

  • Deemed doubtful for Sunday

    Williams (ankle) is doubtful for Sunday's game versus the Titans.

    Analysis: Williams departed early in last week's loss to the Patriots, and he's expected to miss his second game of the season this Sunday. Calais Campbell (calf) is also doubtful, so the Ravens' defensive line likely will function without two of its three starters, making it susceptible to a Derrick Henry explosion. Justin Ellis is expected to start in Williams' place at nose tackle.

  • May miss time

    Coach John Harbaugh said Monday that Williams (ankle) could miss Sunday's game against the Titans, Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Sun reports.

    Analysis: Harbaugh didn't reveal the nature of the injury that Williams suffered in Sunday's loss to the Seahawks, but it's clear that he's in danger of missing time. The Ravens may wait until after the practice week is complete before making a decision. Justin Ellis is next up at nose tackle if Williams is ruled out.

  • Won't return Sunday

    Williams (ankle) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against New England, Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Sun reports.

    Analysis: Williams exited in the first half and was officially ruled out soon after halftime. He'll hope to heal in time to face the Titans in Week 11, with Justin Ellis filling in on the interior of Baltimore's defensive line in the meantime.

  • Hurts ankle on SNF

    Williams (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Patriots.

    Analysis: Williams' departure leaves the Ravens thin on the defensive line with Calais Campbell (calf) inactive. Justin Ellis should take over at nose tackle as long as Williams remains sidelined.

  • Activated by Ravens

    Williams was activated off the reserve/COVID-19 list by Baltimore on Thursday.

    Analysis: Williams had close contact with a person infected with the illness and did not actually test positive himself, so the fact that he was activated so quickly is a great sign. Now healthy, expect the veteran to assume his usual starting nose tackle role in Sunday's game against the Steelers.

  • Lands on reserve/COVID-19 list

    Williams was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

    Analysis: Williams had close contact with a person infected with the illness and did not actually test positive himself according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. Still, the NFL's protocol rules dictate that he will have to be isolated for at least five days. As a result, the starting nose tackle's absence Sunday should result in more snaps for Justin Ellis in the middle.

  • Restructures contract

    Williams and Baltimore have agreed to terms on a restructured contract with a base value of $8.25 million over the next two years, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Williams' restructured deal includes $8.25 million guaranteed. He previously carried a $19 million salary over the next two seasons, without any guarantees, so this move frees up $3 million in cap space for the Ravens. The 31-year-old defensive tackle is locked in for his usual starting role Sunday against the Browns.

  • Another 34-tackle season

    Williams notched 34 tackles (13 solo), one sack and one recovered fumble across 14 regular-season games in 2019.

    Analysis: Williams tied his 2018 totals for tackles and sacks, despite appearing in two fewer contests this season. The defensive tackle remains under contract with the Ravens through 2021, but he doesn't carry much IDP value due to a lack of upside as a pass rusher.

  • Set to rest in Week 17

    Williams (coach's decision) won't play in Sunday's game against the Steelers, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Williams is having a solid season, recording 35 tackles and a sack over 14 games. The Ravens have clinched the No. 1 playoff spot in the AFC, so Williams will take a week of rest. Patrick Ricard and Justin Ellis should both enjoy upticks in usage in Williams' stead.

  • Notches first sack of season in win

    Williams recorded a sack and a solo tackle in Sunday's win over the Texans.

    Analysis: It was the first sack of the year for the 30-year-old, who has never recorded more than two in a single campaign. He's up to 19 tackles (seven solo) on the year.
