Latest Fantasy Rumors
Veteran insurance for Chargers
Williams' signing with the Chargers on Friday is an attempt to address the uncertain early season status of two starting defensive linemen, Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Williams brings nine seasons of experience and can serve as a solid run-blocking presence. Thiry explains the move is largely designed to guard against the potential unavailability of Austin Johnson and Otito Ogbonnia, who suffered season-ending knee and quadriceps injuries, respectively, midway through the 2022 campaign. Williams has prior experience with Chargers head coach Brandon Staley as well, as both were with the Bears during the 2018 and 2019 seasons.

Many thought Williams' breakout 2019 campaign was too good to be true, and his 2020 performance more or less confirmed that notion. While the Lions' new coaching staff will give the 30-year-old a chance to redeem himself in the team's new 3-4 defense, Williams is not even a lock to make the team.
