The Patriots signed RB Trayveon Williams.

Fantasy Impact

Williams will fill a depth role in the backfield for New England behind Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson.

The Texans hosted RB Trayveon Williams for a workout.

Fantasy Impact

Williams was one of three running backs who worked out for Houston. The Texans also just drafted former USC RB Woody Marks in the fourth round of the NFL Draft. They would hold a depth role if any of them sign with Houston. Williams was released by the Bengals last year.

The Bengals released RB Trayveon Williams.

Fantasy Impact

Williams was released to make room for the Bengals adding DE K.J. Henry off waivers. He will look to land another opportunity.

Trayveon Williams carried the ball once for two yards in the Bengals' 25-17 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 17.

Fantasy Impact

Williams has remained minimally involved in the Bengals offensive attack, seeing three touches or less in each of his 13 games this season for the Bengals. Fantasy managers can leave the running back off rosters in all formats ahead of a Week 18 contest against the Cleveland Browns.

Trayveon Williams did not record a touch in a 34-31 overtime win over the Jaguars in Week 13.

Fantasy Impact

Williams played sparingly and ran a few routes but was not targeted in the contest. He appears to have been overtaken as the RB2 in Cincinnati by rookie Chase Brown, who logged nine carries. Williams can be sent to waivers in fantasy leagues this week as the Bengals prepare to take on the Colts in Week 14.
