  Saints | Jamaal Williams returning    Thu Oct 19, 09:38 AM

New Orleans Saints RB Jamaal Williams (hamstring) will come off the Reserve/Injured list Thursday, Oct. 19, and is expected to play in Week 7.

Footballguys view: Williams will be out there on Thursday night against the Jaguars. He's set to be the no.2 back behind Alvin Kamara and could get some work near pay dirt. We generally like to give a week just to see how things look, but with six teams on bye Williams may have to be a 'what the heck' flex for you in Week 7.

  Saints | New Orleans' injury report for Week 3    Fri Sep 22, 03:44 PM

New Orleans Saints RB Jamaal Williams (hamstring) did not practice all week and has been ruled out for Week 3 versus the Green Bay Packers. TE Foster Moreau (ankle) did not practice on Friday, Sept. 22, and is listed as doubtful. CB Paulson Adebo (hamstring) also did not practice on Friday but is listed as questionable. S Ugo Amadi (knee) was limited in practice for a second consecutive day on Friday and is also listed as questionable. QB Taysom Hill (knee), RB Kendre Miller (hamstring) and S Jordan Howden (finger) practiced in full on Friday and have been removed from the injury report.

Footballguys view: The rookie Miller will get his first action of the year in this one and share the backfield with Tony Jones, who got called up from the practice squad last week and scored twice. Taysom Hill got some looks at running back and was strong on his touches, so don't be surprised if he also figures more into the running game as the Saints await the return of Alvin Kamara in Week 4.

  Saints | Kamara suspended three games    Fri Aug 4, 04:22 PM

Adam Schefter, of ESPN, reports that Saints RB Alvin Kamara will receive a three-game suspension for his role in a 2022 Las Vegas nightclub brawl.

Footballguys view: Kamara's depressed ADP assumed a suspension was coming, but this is on the low end of the expectations. Three games is less than 1/4 of a typical fantasy regular season, so drafting him as an RB3/RB4 won't really hurt your team and you could gain an RB2 for fantasy when he returns. Jamaal Williams and Kendre Miller get a small hit on their value with this news. Expect Kamara's ADP to inch up now that his status is known.

Free-agent RB Jamaal Williams (Lions) agreed to terms on a three-year contract with the New Orleans Saints Wednesday, March 15, according to a source. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: Williams wanted to stay with the Lions, but when they signed David Montgomery it was a sign his days in the Motor City were done. Now, Williams goes to a Saints backfield where he can split time with RB Alvin Kamara. If/when Kamara is suspended for his incident in Las Vegas last year, Williams can handle a featured role.

Detroit Lions RB Jamaal Williams rushed 13 times for just 23 yards in Week 15 against the New York Jets, while he was not targeted in the pass game.

Footballguys view: Williams was stopped at the goal line to end the game's first drive and another score was wiped off of the board by a penalty. He's only a what-the-heck flex against the Panthers, but he has a high ceiling against a defense that allowed three rushing scores today vs. Pittsburgh.

  Lions | Jamaal Williams held in check    Sun Dec 11, 05:30 PM

Detroit Lions RB Jamaal Williams rushed for 37 yards on 16 carries against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 14.

Footballguys view: Williams was a dud this week because the Lions scored three times through the air and Justin Jackson got the rushing score. This comes with the territory when you play a goal line back who doesn't contribute in the passing game. He'll be a poor play against the Jets next week.

  Lions | Jamaal Williams picks up another TD    Sun Dec 4, 04:53 PM

Detroit Lions RB Jamaal Williams rushed for 35 yards and one touchdown on 11 carries against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 13.

Footballguys view: Williams scored, but this was a disappointing stat line on a day when the Lions scored 40 points. D'Andre Swift getting more work than Williams is a bad sign for Williams viability as more than a flex play or emergency depth going forward.
