INJURIES

Plays only on special teams Williams played all 13 of his snaps on special teams in Monday's 27-20 win over the Cowboys.
Impact With trade-deadline pickup Khalil Herbert having now gotten fully up to speed with the Cincinnati offense, Williams' already muted role on offense has completely evaporated. He's seen all of his snaps on special teams in each of the Bengals' last three contests.
DECEMBER 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Makes debut on offense Williams played seven of the Bengals' 74 snaps on offense but didn't log any touches in Sunday's 41-24 win over the Raiders.
Impact Through the Bengals' first eight games of the season, Williams' snaps had come exclusively on special teams, but he saw his first action on offense Week 9 with Zack Moss (neck) ruled out for the contest. Chase Brown started and dominated the snaps (59) while handling all of the running-back opportunities (27 carries, five receptions), leaving no touches for either Williams or practice-squad call-up Kendall Milton (five snaps). Moss is expected to miss the rest of the regular season due to his injury, but Williams could move back into a pure special-teams role Week 10 versus the Ravens after the Bengals acquired Khalil Herbert from the Bears on Tuesday. Herbert is expected to immediately step in as the top complement to Brown, who is still likely to take on heavy workloads in the weeks to come.
NOVEMBER 5, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Stuck in special-teams role Williams played all 14 of his snaps on special teams in Sunday's 17-7 win over the Giants.
Impact Williams has been active for each of the Bengals' first six games but still has yet to play a snap on offense. He'll remain out of the mix on offense as Cincinnati's No. 3 back while both Chase Brown and Zack Moss are healthy.
OCTOBER 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Limited to special-teams role Williams played 14 snaps -- all on special teams -- in Monday's 38-33 loss to the Commanders.
Impact Williams has been active for each of the Bengals' first three games, but he has yet to make his 2024 debut on offense while Cincinnati has turned to Zack Moss and Chase Brown to handle all the running-back snaps. His standing as a part-time kick returner and core member of the Bengals' special-teams coverage units should allow Williams to continue to suit up on a weekly basis, but he may not be guaranteed a substantial role out of the backfield even if one of Moss or Brown were to miss time.
SEPTEMBER 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Back with Cincinnati The Bengals re-signed Williams on Thursday.
Impact Williams has returned to the Bengals' 53-man roster after he was released Wednesday to make room for K.J. Henry, whom Cincinnati picked up off waivers. The sixth-year running back remains comfortably behind Chase Brown and Zack Moss on the Bengals' depth chart, so he's expected to be used primarily as a special-teamer in 2024.
AUGUST 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Cut by Bengals Williams was released by the Bengals on Wednesday.
Impact Williams made Cincinnati's initial 53-man roster Tuesday, only to subsequently get cut Wednesday to make room on the roster for edge rusher K.J. Henry, whom the Bengals claimed on waivers from Washington. Williams' departure leaves Zack Moss and Chase Brown as the only healthy running backs on Cincinnati's roster, and Charlie Jones may be tasked with returning kickoffs in addition to punts on special teams.

HIGHLIGHT: Ronnie Harrison's TFL vs. Williams might be the most powerful tackle of 2024 preseason Indianapolis Colts safety Ronnie Harrison's TFL vs. Trayveon Williams might be the most powerful tackle of 2024 preseason.
AUGUST 23, 2024 • COLTS.COM
Starts preseason loss Williams had six carries for 22 yards and two catches for 19 yards in a preseason loss to the Bears on Saturday.
Impact Williams got the start with Zack Moss and Chase Brown among the many Bengals rested. There's not much fantasy appeal to a 2019 sixth-round pick who has mostly played special teams to this point in his career, but Williams at least appears on track for a back-end roster spot after fellow running back Chris Evans suffered a season-ending knee injury a few days earlier.

MARCH 11, 2024 • BENGALS.COM
Staying with Bengals Williams is signing a one-year contract to stay with the Bengals.
Impact There was some discussion last offseason about Williams potentially replacing Samaje Perine as Cincy's No. 2 running back, but the 2019 sixth-round pick mostly ended up playing special teams a gain. Williams' 156 snaps on offense were easily a career high, but that equated to only 14.4 percent of the team total, whereas on special teams he took 64.2 percent of available snaps (294 overall). He has 77 touches for 381 yards and no touchdowns in 51 career games, and he'll likely be the third-string RB again in 2024.
MARCH 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Minimal role in victory Williams had two carries for six yards on 11 offensive snaps in Sunday's win over the Niners.
Impact Even with Chase Brown on IR, there wasn't much room for Williams to make an impact. Only on a few occasions have the Bengals not used Joe Mixon as a three-down back, and Williams is unlikely to dislodge Mixon from that role.
OCTOBER 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Two catches in win Williams caught both of his targets for three yards in Sunday's 17-13 win over the Seahawks.
Impact Williams failed to record a single rush in the contest while operating as the team's No. 2 running back. The veteran played just nine of the Bengals' 54 offensive snaps Sunday, limiting his usage behind starter Joe Mixon. Barring an injury to Mixon, Williams remains far off the fantasy radar heading into Cincinnati's Week 7 bye.

Back with Bengals Williams re-signed with the Bengals on a one-year contract Thursday.
Impact Williams closed out the 2022 season as Cincinnati's kick returner. He's likely to reprise that role in 2023 and could also see an uptick in usage on offense as a depth option in the backfield behind Joe Mixon and Chris Evans.
MARCH 16, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Report: Bengals Interested in Veteran Running Back With Free Agency Looming Joe Mixon’s future is in question. Samaje Perine and Trayveon Williams are free agents
MARCH 12, 2023 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM
Serves as return man Week 18 Williams played all 21 of his snaps on special teams Sunday in the Bengals' 27-16 win over the Ravens.
Impact Williams was active for the Bengals' final seven games of the regular season, but he didn't receive any touches on offense over the last three of those contests while Cincinnati had both of Joe Mixon and Samaje Perine available out of the backfield. The Texas A&M product has, however, overtaken Chris Evans as Cincinnati's kickoff returner. Williams brought back two kickoffs for 48 yards against Baltimore to bring his average up to 22.3 yards per runback over 16 attempts during the regular season.
JANUARY 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Minimal offensive role Williams had just one carry for three yards in Sunday's win over the Chiefs, playing 10 offensive snaps.
Impact Williams was still involved on special teams, returning two kicks for 27 yards, but he took a step back from the previous week when he was more involved against the Titans. If Joe Mixon (concussion) returns as expected this week, Williams might be relegated to special teams only duty.

Burrow, Bengals now at 7-4 after hard-fought win over Titans

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow is getting better and better at doing whatever it takes and using whatever players are available to win
NOVEMBER 28, 2022 • Associated Press
Contributes in win Williams had two carries for 18 yards and one big catch for 16 yards in the Bengals' win over the Titans.
Impact Williams is clearly behind both Samaje Perine and Joe Mixon when both are healthy, but he's also clearly ahead of Chris Evans should the opportunity arise.
NOVEMBER 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Set to fill depth role Week 12 Williams is expected to be active for Sunday's game against the Titans, James Rapien of SI.com reports.
Impact With lead back Joe Mixon (concussion) having been ruled out for the Week 12 contest, Williams and Chris Evans are poised to serve as depth options behind Samaje Perine, who is expected to step into the starting role. Perine will most likely dominate the snaps and touches out of the backfield, though perhaps not to the extent of Mixon, who played at least two-thirds of the Bengals' offensive plays in every game until Week 11, when he exited in the first half of a win over the Steelers after sustaining the concussion. Mixon's absence should pave the way for Evans and Williams to both have roles on offense, albeit as change-of-pace options behind Perine. Evans likely represents a better bet to relieve Perine on passing downs, while Williams could sub in for Perine in short-yardage or more obvious running situations. Williams suited up for just the second time all season in the win over Pittsburgh, carrying two times for seven yards while failing to secure his only target.
