Impact Williams stood strong in the defense despite the club's loss Friday, with the defender notching three tackles, five interceptions and seven clearances. He should continue to see quite a bit of action throughout this playoff series against the ultra attacking Miami. However, he will have to be cautious, having already picked up his first of three playoff yellow cards before a suspension.

Leads defensive effort in draw Williams generated two tackles (two won), 11 clearances and one interception in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus New York Red Bulls.
Impact Williams led the Atalanta United backline Saturday with 11 clearances as they drew 2 - 2 with New York Red Bulls. The 11 clearances were his most in a single match through 23 MLS appearances (22 starts) in 2024. Williams has made 96 total clearances in MLS-league play in 2024, topping his previous career best of 94 clearances over 28 appearances (24 starts) with Los Angeles Galaxy in 2022.
SEPTEMBER 22, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Starting against Miami Williams (undisclosed) is in the starting XI for Wednesday's match against Inter Miami.
Impact Williams didn't miss any game due to the injury he picked up against Nashville. He'll make his 22nd appearance of the year (21st start) as part of a center-back pairing with Stian Rode Gregersen. The Irishman will look to produce close to his averages of 4.0 clearances and 3.1 ball recoveries per game.
SEPTEMBER 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Leaves field early Williams was forced off in the 86th minute of Saturday's 0-2 loss to Nashville due to injury.
Impact Williams almost made it the full 90 but was given relief in the 86th minute, appearing to have been affected by an injury. The exact issue is unknown, leaving the severity of the problems and a timetable up in the air. He has started in 20 of his 21 appearances this campaign, so the club will hope for minor issues and a speedy return.

Back with ATL Williams (calf) is on the bench for Saturday's match versus LAFC.
Impact Williams has been absent for the last month with a calf injury, therefore is not fit enough to start yet for the team. He had previously started the last six games in a row, recording 27 clearances with four tackles in that span.
MAY 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Questionable once again Williams (calf) is questionable to play Saturday against LAFC.
Impact Williams is listed as questionable once again, but the defender hasn't been able to feature since April 6, missing each of the team's last seven matches. His absence would be massive for an Atlanta defensive line that's also in danger of being without Noah Cobb (ankle).
MAY 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Won't play Saturday Williams (calf) has been ruled out of Saturday's game against Minnesota United.
Impact Williams has been a regular at the back for Atlanta when available, going the full 90 in five of his six starts in 2024. His absence will undoubtedly hurt the defensive line, and this means Luis Abram will likely get the start at center-back alongside Stian Rode Gregersen.
MAY 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Not seen in training Thursday Williams (calf) was not spotted in training Thursday, Doug Roberson of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Impact Williams has missed three games in a row due to a nagging calf injury, and it doesn't seem he'll be available to face Minnesota United, either. Williams has been a regular at the back for Atlanta when available, though, going the full 90 in five of his six starts in 2024.

APRIL 8, 2024 • AJC.COM
Set for two to four weeks out Williams picked up a left calf injury in the club's 1-1 draw against New York City FC on Saturday and is now expected to miss two to four weeks, the club confirmed Monday.
Impact Williams looks to not be an option for the next couple of weeks, as he has gone down with a calf injury following Saturday's match. This will be an issue for the club, as the defender has yet to miss a start this season, with Luis Abram being his most likely replacement. He will now hope for a return in around two to four weeks, looking for no setbacks in his recovery process and a swift return to play after his season was hindered by injuries last campaign.

Impact Williams is remaining in the MLS for his next season of play, having signed with Atlanta United after spending last campaign with D.C. United. The defender had a slight regression in his latest season but was still decent when on the pitch, appearing in 24 of the club's matches while providing 20 tackles, 25 interceptions and 69 clearances to go along with one goal. He should come into his new club fighting for starting minutes immediately, as he has started normally in his past three years in the league and still brings a lot to the table despite being a league journeyman at age 30.

It's been a season full of ups and downs for the center-back but he hopes his return can boost a DC United still hopeful for a playoff spot.
