K'Waun Williams Fantasy

Denver Broncos defensive back K'Waun Williams (knee) has been downgraded to out for the Week 13 contest against the Baltimore Ravens, according to a source. Williams was listed as questionable on Friday but now won't travel with the team to Baltimore. The 31-year-old is recovering from arthroscopic knee surgery and will miss his third straight game. The good news is he was able to return to limited practices this week, so Williams should have a shot to return in Week 14 against the Kansas City Chiefs. Denver's D has been good at limiting opponents total yards and points per game, but they don't have much fantasy upside, especially in a tough matchup against Ravens dual-threat quarterback Lamar Jackson this Sunday.

Cornerback K'Waun Williams is reportedly close to signing a two-year, $7 million contract to join the Denver Broncos, giving the team a strong slot corner option. Williams appeared in 14 contests with San Francisco this past season, racking up 52 tackles, four passes defended, one interception, and one forced fumble. The 30-year-old has spent the past five years patrolling the 49ers' secondary, giving the Broncos defense a bonafide slot coverage man amidst a division teeming with strong wideout play. Denver's schedule may keep their defensive unit on the waiver wire in many season-long formats, but the team continues to amass talent that should make them an appealing DFS option in 2022 depending on their opponent.

San Francisco 49ers nickel cornerback K'Waun Williams, who recently visited with the Kansas City Chiefs, agreed to an undisclosed one-year deal to remain with the 49ers on Wednesday, according to a source. Williams also drew interest from the New York Jets. His career took off after joining the Niners in 2017, winning the job as the team's primary slot cornerback within a month. The 29-year-old played in only eight games last year due to knee and ankle injuries, though, recording 22 tackles, two sacks and a forced fumble. Williams has played in 51 games and has tallied 172 tackles, three interceptions and four sacks in his four seasons with San Francisco. The 49ers focused on retaining their own free agents this offseason, also re-signing left tackle Trent Williams, fullback Kyle Juszczyk and cornerback Jason Verrett.
