Who Should I Start? Cameron Thomas or Sam Williams

Monday, August 26, 11:18 PM

The Arizona Cardinals have traded linebacker Cam Thomas to the Kansas City Chiefs for a seventh-round pick. Thomas, who struggled in his second NFL season with no sacks after a rookie year of three, had a standout performance in the Cardinals' second preseason game, recording two sacks, a tackle for loss, and two quarterback hits. With the Chiefs' defensive line missing Charles Omenihu (ACL) for a significant part of the season, Thomas will provide much-needed depth. The Chiefs' defensive line, led by George Karlaftis and Chris Jones, along with role players like Mike Danna, should benefit from Thomas's contributions. This move bolsters the Chiefs' defense, which is expected to be a key fantasy asset again this season.

Dallas Cowboys defensive end Sam Williams (knee) was confirmed to have suffered a torn ACL on Sunday. He was seen being carted off the field and a torn ACL was initially feared, but it has now been confirmed with an MRI. Williams was looking to be the first reliever for Demarcus Lawrence this season after posting 4.5 sacks, 26 total tackles (15 solo), and five tackles for loss. Marshawn Kneeland and Durrell Johnson are the next two defensive ends on the depth chart, so their performances throughout training camp will likely be closely monitored.
