Nick Williams

According to Mike Garafolo, the New York Giants have signed DT Nick Williams.

Fantasy Impact

Nick Williams entered the league in 2013 as a seventh-round pick of the Pittsburgh Steelers, but failed to crack the 53-man roster in his rookie season. Williams went on to spend time with the Chiefs, Dolphins, and Bears before landing in Detroit, where he spent his past two years. Williams will now look to be a part of the Giants interior DL rotation and add to his 7.5 sacks and 14 tackles-for-loss that he has amassed over his career.

Detroit Lions DT Nick Williams has been downgraded to out Sunday against the Green Bay Packers due to a shoulder injury.

Fantasy Impact

The Lions will be without their starting DT, so this is good news for Aaron Jones owners and Aaron Rodgers. Detriot's defense did next to nothing last week and should be avoided for any fantasy owner looking to stream a defense in Week 2.
