Packers RB Jamaal Williams inactive for Titans game

Green Bay Packers running back Jamaal Williams won’t play Sunday night against the Tennessee Titans after injuring his quadriceps in a victory over Carolina last week

DECEMBER 28, 2020 • Associated Press

Not playing Week 16 Williams (quadriceps) is listed as inactive Sunday against the Titans.

Impact After failing to practice in any capacity during Week 16 prep, Williams' imminent DNP was forecast with a doubtful designation for this contest. While Williams tends to a quadriceps injury that knocked him out of Week 15 action versus the Panthers, the Packers will ride the coattails of Aaron Jones out of their backfield. There's also the potential for rookie second-round pick AJ Dillon to get his first significant run of the campaign.

Doubtful for SNF Williams (quadriceps) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against Tennessee, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Impact Williams suffered the injury in last Saturday's win over the Panthers, freeing up Aaron Jones for 90 percent snap share and 158 total yards on 25 touches. The Packers may find a little more work for AJ Dillon this week, but Jones is sure to be busy again.

Sidelined for practice Williams (quadriceps) didn't participate in Thursday's practice, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact With consecutive absences at practice to begin Week 16, Williams isn't putting himself on track to suit up Sunday against the Titans. Before providing a gauge of his availability for the contest, the Packers will see if Williams is able to practice in some capacity Friday. Rookie AJ Dillon would be in line to work as the top backup to Aaron Jones if Williams can't play this week.

DNP on Wednesday Williams (quadriceps) didn't practice Wednesday.

Impact As was foretold when he wasn't seen at the open portion of the session, Williams was held out due to the quad issue he picked up Week 15 versus the Panthers. Fellow backfield mate Aaron Jones was limited himself by a toe injury, leaving AJ Dillon as the only healthy Green Bay running back at the moment. As a result, this backfield will be one to watch as Sunday's game against the Titans approaches.

DECEMBER 23, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Not seen at practice Williams (quadriceps) wasn't spotted at the part of practice open to the media Wednesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Impact If he doesn't fit in any work, it'll mark Williams' second DNP in as many days due to a quadriceps injury suffered Week 15. Aside from starter Aaron Jones, AJ Dillon is the only other healthy running back on the Packers' active roster, so the rookie second-round pick could be in line for some consistent work in the short term if Williams is unable to get healthy.

Misses Tuesday's practice Williams (thigh) didn't take part in Tuesday's practice, Olivia Reiner of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact Green Bay won't release its first Week 16 practice report until Wednesday, but if his activity Tuesday is any indication, Williams will be listed as a non-participant. Williams was lifted early in Saturday's win over Panthers with the thigh injury, finishing the game with one carry for six yards and two receptions for 14 yards across four offensive snaps.

Impact Due to the phrasing, Williams seems poised to be more involved with the training staff than with his teammates on the practice field for Week 16 prep. Wednesday's injury report ultimately may set the stage for his ability to suit up next weekend. If he's unable to do so, Williams could yield reps rookie second-rounder to AJ Dillon, though Aaron Jones figures to earn the bulk of the RB touches in that scenario.

Suffers quad injury Williams is questionable to return to Saturday's game against the Panthers due to a quadriceps injury, Olivia Reiner of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact The 25-year-old had one carry for six yards and caught both his targets for 14 yards during the first half before exiting the contest. AJ Dillon will operate as Green Bay's secondary running back behind Aaron Jones while Williams is sidelined.

DECEMBER 20, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Snap count continues to decline Williams had 10 carries for 38 yards and was not targeted in Sunday's victory over the Lions.

Impact Williams played a lower percentage of the snaps than the week before for the third game in a row, with his 20 snaps Sunday checking in just one more than the season-low 19 snaps he received in Week 3. Williams did get the ball half the time he was on the field, but he was unable to provide much help for those that included him in Week 14 lineups. With the Packers turning more to Aaron Jones and the team's Week 15 opponent -- the Panthers -- doing a good job against opposing running backs of late, those still alive in the fantasy playoffs don't have much reason to keep a roster spot reserved for Williams.

Reduced role in Week 13 Williams had five carries for 26 yards and two receptions for 10 yards in Sunday's victory over the Eagles.

Impact After spending about half the time on the field over the previous three weeks, Williams was outsnapped roughly 2:1 by Aaron Jones in Week 13. He finished with fewer than 10 touches for just the second time in six games, but also the second time in the last three contests. Williams will have an enticing matchup in Week 14 against Detroit, but his workload is trending in the wrong direction. It should also be noted that the Lions have been better against the run of late, giving up an average of just 3.7 YPC on 114 attempts over their last four games.

DECEMBER 7, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Another productive outing Williams had 17 carries for 73 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's victory over the Bears.

Impact The Packers raced out to a big lead in Sunday's contest, which allowed Williams to take the same number of carries as top running back Aaron Jones. Most of Williams' damage came on a third-quarter drive, one in which he got six straight carries and ultimately found paydirt. Neither Williams' nor Jones' roles will be affected by Sunday's results, but Williams did score for a second game in a row, and he continues doing his best to show Jones is not the only ball carrier worthy of fantasy consideration in the Packers' backfield. Over the last seven games he appeared in -- with Jones sidelined for two of them -- Williams averaged 9.7 fantasy points in standard leagues.
