Jonathan Williams Reverts To Practice Squad

Washington Commanders running back Jonathan Williams (concussion) reverted to the practice squad ahead of Week 16 versus the New York Jets. The 29-year-old suffered the injury last Sunday when he played a season-high 22 percent of offensive snaps but registered just one carry. With both Williams and Brian Robinson Jr. (hamstring) unavailable, the Commanders may enter this week's contest with just two healthy running backs, Antonio Gibson and Chris Rodriguez Jr.

Jonathan Williams Suffers Concussion On Sunday

Washington Commanders running back Jonathan Williams (head) didn't return to Sunday's matchup with the Los Angeles Rams. With Brian Robinson Jr. (hamstring) unavailable, Williams was in the lineup for Week 15. However, he was ruled out with a concussion, ending his day with one carry for negative yardage. At any rate, Williams was on the field versus the Rams for depth purposes, so the injury won't impact fantasy managers heading into the Week 16 meeting with the New York Jets.
