Connor Williams Fantasy

Miami Dolphins center Connor Williams hasn't been present for mandatory minicamp this week as he seeks a new contract. Williams didn't show up to voluntary organized team activities either, which was expected. The Dolphins could work something out with the 26-year-old rather quickly, but in the meantime he'll be missing valuable repetitions with the offense. The former second-rounder in 2018 started all 17 games at center for the Dolphins in his first year in Miami after spending the first four years of his NFL career with the Dallas Cowboys. Until Williams returns to the team, Dan Feeney and Alama Uluave will likely split reps at the pivot.

Miami Dolphins offensive lineman Connor Williams continues to play center with his new team during organized team activities this offseason. "I think I've really enjoyed this position," Williams said. "I think definitely in this offense, in this scheme, playing center brings out my strengths. They've been very patient with me learning the position and learning the ins and outs with it as growing pains. I've enjoyed it. I've enjoyed the transition." Williams played left guard in his first four seasons in the NFL with the Dallas Cowboys, but it appears the Dolphins are serious about moving him to center full time in 2022.

Miami Dolphins left guard Connor Williams, a free-agent acquisition from the Dallas Cowboys this offseason, has been splitting his time between guard and center during the team's offseason program and is being viewed as an option to play center if the team wants to go in that direction, according to multiple sources. The Dolphins coaching staff is experimenting with offensive linemen at different positions this offseason. Michael Deiter started nine games at center in 2021 and was decent. If Deiter or Williams don't start at center, the Dolphins could sign free-agent starter J.C. Tretter, although they weren't actively pursuing him before the draft. The Dolphins also think Austin Jackson, a former starter at left tackle and left guard, can be productive at right tackle. He's been working there during the offseason program.
