Fantasy Impact
Willaims will not face disciplinary action from the league stemming from a 2016 DWI charge in which he was recently found not guilty. The 23-year-old rusher will likely open the 2017 season as LeSean McCoy's primary backup and handcuff in the wake of Mike Gillislee's departure via free agency this offseason. He is worth a late-round flier in upcoming fantasy football drafts in case he also assumes the role of the team's short yardage/ goal line back.
