Jamaal Williams Misses Practice Wednesday
Jamaal Williams Misses Practice Wednesday
one year ago
As expected, New Orleans Saints running back Jamaal Williams (hamstring) was unable to practice on Wednesday after getting hurt in Monday night's Week 2 win over the Carolina Panthers. The Saints said on Monday that Williams will likely need some time to recover from his injury, so the full expectation is that he will not suit up in Week 3 against the Green Bay Packers on the road. Fantasy managers that had been using the 28-year-old in their starting lineups the first two weeks will need to pivot for at least the next week. Alvin Kamara has one more game on his suspension, so Tony Jones Jr. should lead the Saints' backfield this weekend after scoring two touchdowns on Monday night. However, Taysom Hill (knee) should remain involved, while rookie Kendre Miller (hamstring) is on track to make his NFL debut.
