Who Should I Start? Trayveon Williams or Michael Wiley

Tuesday, December 9, 9:19 PM

The Cleveland Browns have signed running back Trayveon Williams off the Los Angeles Chargers' practice squad, according to ESPN's Kris Rhim. ESPN's Daniel Oyefusi notes that Williams spent training camp with Cleveland, so he and the team have familiarity with each other. The Browns were in the market for running back help after placing veteran back Jerome Ford (shoulder) on Injured Reserve with a shoulder injury. Williams appeared in just three games for the Chargers this season, recording three carries for negative one yard. The 28-year-old has played in 71 career games across seven NFL seasons, recording 280 scrimmage yards on 81 touches. In Cleveland, Williams figures to play a depth role behind Browns running backs Quinshon Judkins, Dylan Sampson, and Raheim Sanders.

The Washington Commanders announced on Thursday that they re-signed running back Michael Wiley to a Reserve/Futures deal. Wiley was an undrafted rookie out of the University of Arizona but eventually found his way onto the Commanders' practice squad during the 2024 season. The 24-year-old never got brought up to the active 53-man roster for a regular season game, though, and he will now look to continue his development this offseason in Washington before he makes his case for a roster spot in spring training this summer. Wiley stands at 5-foot-10 and 209 pounds and is a native of Houston, Texas.
