Malik Williams News
Atlanta Falcons running back Malik Williams will seek a second opinion on his injured shoulder. Williams left the Falcons final preseason game against the Dolphins in the third quarter, and did not return to the game. The fact that Williams is seeking a second opinion is extremely concerning. It now looks possible that he will be heading for an injury settlement with the Falcons rather than a spot on the roster. At this stage it looks as though any hope Williams has for fantasy value this season has evaporated.
Atlanta Falcons running back Malik Williams was one of the only bright spots for the Falcons in the final preseason game against the Miami Dolphins. Williams rushed the ball seven times for 20 yards including an eight-yard touchdown. In addition, Williams also caught two passes, on two targets, for 35 yards. Williams also had a highlight play when he hurdled a defender. However, Williams left in the third quarter with a shoulder injury so his status for the season is a little bit unclear. It seems as though Williams has done enough to make the Falcons roster, but he may have to work his way up from the fourth string spot if he is to have any fantasy value this season.
Atlanta Falcons running back Malik Williams had just three carries against the Jacksonville Jaguars Saturday. Williams is in a competition for the fourth running back spot, if the Falcons decide to carry one. The third preseason game was always going to be tough for Williams, with Tevin Coleman seeing the majority of the work. Williams 3 carries for 12 yards will not have done much to convince the team he should make the roster. However, Williams should get the chance to impress in the fourth preseason game next week. Even if he does make the roster it is unlikely we see Williams have much fantasy value in 2018.
