JONAH WILLIAMS NEWS

Good to go against Seattle Williams (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Impact Williams will return from a knee injury that he suffered in the Cardinals' regular-season opener. Williams will take over at right tackle for Kelvin Beachum for Sunday's contest.

Officially activated from IR The Cardinals activated Williams (knee) from their injured reserve list Wednesday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.

Impact Williams has been out since the first quarter of Arizona's first game this season due to a knee injury, but it now seems that he's finally nearing a return ahead of Week 12. Kelvin Beachum has played relatively well in Williams' absence, and coach Jonathan Gannon said Wednesday that the team would "weigh all the variables" before deciding whether to put him back into his place at right tackle once he's available again, so it sounds like even if he's fully healthy for Sunday's game at Seattle, his status as a starter may not be guaranteed.

Ruled out for Week 9 Williams (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Bears, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Williams had his 21-day practice window opened by the team on Wednesday, but he isn't quite ready to make his return to the field following the knee injury he suffered in Week 1. The offensive lineman still has plenty of time to increase his workload at practice before the Nov. 20 deadline for his activation from injured reserve.

Nearing return Williams (knee) has been Ian Rapoport of NFL Network to return from injured reserve Wednesday.

Impact Williams suffered the injury Week 1 and has been sidelined ever since. He'll now have a 21-day window to practice with the team before needing to be placed back on the 53-man roster. However, if healthy enough, he could return as soon as Sunday against the Bears. The Alabama product was signed to a two-year. $30 million contract in free agency to anchor the right side of the Cardinals' offensive line, so his potential return should be a significant boost for Arizona.

Placed on injured reserve The Cardinals placed Williams (knee) on injured reserve Wednesday.

Impact Williams was brought in to anchor the right side of Arizona's offensive line, but he'll have to miss at least the next four games due to a knee issue suffered Week 1. Kelvin Beachum will step up as the starting right tackle in Williams' stead. Per Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com, coach Jonathan Gannon said the Cardinals are still gathering information on whether Williams will require surgery.

Won't return Sunday Williams (knee) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Bills, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.

Impact Williams left in the first half of Sunday's game after injuring his knee. Kelvin Beachum will serve as the Cardinals' right tackle for the rest of the contest.

Questionable to return Williams (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Bills, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.

Impact The offensive tackle signed with the Cardinals in the offseason after spending his first four seasons with the Bengals. With Paris Johnson entrenched as Arizona's left tackle, Williams moved from left tackle to right tackle after signing.

Impact Williams will head to Arizona after spending the first five seasons of his career with the Bengals.

Impact Following the team's signing of Orlando Brown on Wednesday, Williams wants out of Cincinnati.

Not practicing Wednesday Williams (kneecap) isn't practicing Wednesday, Andrew Gillis of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Impact Williams was sidelined for the Bengals' divisional-round win over Buffalo due to the dislocated kneecap he suffered in Cincinnati's win over the Ravens in the wild-card round a week earlier. He's not yet trending in the right direction toward a return to the lineup, but he'll have two more chances to practice before the team needs to make a decision on his status for Sunday's AFC Championship Game against the Chiefs. If Williams remains sidelined, Jackson Carman would presumably step in once again as the Bengals' starting left tackle.
