Antonio Williams Fantasy Stats

New York Giants running back Antonio Williams concluded Thursday's preseason win over the New England Patriots with 61 rushing yards and a touchdown on a team-high nine carries. The 24-year-old is listed as the No. 4 running back on the depth chart of the New York Giants, so he doesn't provide any value in fantasy football unless multiple injuries occur. Seeing that Williams is buried behind Saquon Barkley, Matt Breida, and Gary Brightwell on the depth chart, it isn't a guarantee for him to even make the 53-man roster for the Giants. That being said, a strong showing from Williams on Thursday does increase his chances of potentially climbing up the depth chart. Fantasy managers should monitor Breida's status with the team to determine whether or not Williams could become a backup option to Barkley.

Buffalo Bills running back Antonio Williams failed to make the 53-man roster on Tuesday. He was released by the team, but brought back on the practice squad on Wednesday. Williams was a surprising cut because he does have some upside. The 23-year-old is unlikely to have a role in 2021. Both Devin Singletary and Zack Moss are expected to split the carries, while Matt Breida serves as depth at the third string spot. It would take a few injuries or dreadful performances for Williams to get into action in Buffalo. Despite that, Williams is someone worth watching in deep leagues or dynasty formats. The Bills don't have a reliable option, so possibly Williams gets a chance down the road.

Buffalo Bills running back Antonio Williams was unable to make the final roster cut on Tuesday. The 23-year-old back will now attempt to sign elsewhere before the season begins. Honestly, Williams never really had a shot at getting carries in Buffalo. Devin Singletary and Zack Moss are going to split up the workload. Matt Breida is the third option behind them, but he won't even have reliable fantasy value. Williams is young and has potential to be a backup or depth option elsewhere. Although, it's unlikely he'll have any fantasy value at all during the 2021 campaign.

Buffalo Bills running back Antonio Williams was given a fair chance to impress the coaching staff during the preseason opener. Instead, Williams finished with 15 total yards on seven carries and three receptions for nine yards through the air. The absence of Zack Moss (hamstring) has given the other backs in Buffalo a chance to gain some value and possibly move up the depth chart. However, both Williams and Matt Breida posted dud outings in the preseason opener. Devin Singletary appears to be the only back in Buffalo that is reliable at the moment.

Buffalo Bills running back Antonio Williams was able to find the end zone twice during the Week 17 victory over the Miami Dolphins. Many fantasy managers might be thinking "who is this guy" which is fair considering this was his first taste of action in the NFL. He rushed 12 times for 63 yards and scored two touchdowns in the blowout victory. The Bills didn't want to risk an injury to their starters, so Williams saw a majority of the workload in the backfield. He won't be on the fantasy radar or even a dart throw in DFS contests with Devin Singletary and Zack Moss healthy.
