Damien Williams Scores Two Touchdowns on Thursday
Dec. 14, 2018
.Kansas City Chiefs running back Damien Williams was the lead back for Thursday's game versus the Chargers because Spencer Ware (shoulder, hamstring) was unable to play. Williams rushed 10 times for 49 yards and two touchdowns with six receptions for 74 yards through the air. Williams has scored three touchdowns in the last two games, but losing Ware has helped his production. There is a good chance that Ware returns for Week 16 against Seattle. Williams won't be as solid of an option with Ware healthy.

Damien Williams Has Fantasy Value in Week 15
Dec. 13, 2018
.Kansas City Chiefs running back Damien Williams is expected to be the lead back for Thursday's game against the Chargers. Spencer Ware (shoulder, hamstring) is doubtful for this contest and most likely is going to sit this one out. The Chiefs will likely use a committee approach to fill the void, but Williams is the best option out of them all. He scored two short touchdowns last week, but should have a much larger workload without Ware in the backfield. He's a RB2 for Week 15, assuming Ware sits out.

Damien Williams Scores Two Touchdowns
Dec. 9, 2018
.Kansas City Chiefs running back Damien Williams salvaged his fantasy value by scoring two touchdowns in the victory over the Ravens in Week 14. Williams rushed eight times for 14 yards and a touchdown with four receptions for 16 yards and a touchdown. Lead back Spencer Ware clearly outplayed Williams, but he lucked out with short yard TDs. Williams won't have much fantasy value going forward, but Spencer Ware is dealing with a shoulder issue, so that's worth keeping in mind.

Damien Williams Suffers Injury At Practice
Aug. 14, 2018
Kansas City Chiefs running back Damien Williams (shoulder) suffered a shoulder injury in Monday's practice. It's being speculated that the injury Williams sustained could possibly be connected to a surgery he had in the offseason, but the nature of the injury has not yet been reported. Williams showed very well in the Chiefs first preseason matchup against the Texans, averaging four yards per carry on five carries and pulling in both of his receiving targets. Williams is a threat to Spencer Ware as the primary handcuff for bell-cow running back Kareem Hunt if the injury he suffered is minor. This is a situation worth monitoring, as Ware is coming off an injury of his own in 2017 and just resumed contact activities on Monday.

Damien Williams Signs With Chiefs
Mar. 23, 2018
Free agent running back Damien Williams signed with the Chiefs, according to Terez Paylor of the Kansas City Chiefs. Williams, 26, spent his first four NFL seasons in Miami after going undrafted out of Oklahoma, managing 3.6 career yards per carry, but showing passing-down chops with 85 receptions. In Kansas City, Williams figures to battle Charcandrick West for one roster spot behind Kareem Hunt and Spencer Ware.
The Chiefs are expected to sign Williams (shoulder) on Thursday, Adam Teicher of ESPN.com reports.

Damien Williams Visits Colts
Mar. 21, 2018
Free agent running back Damien Williams visited with the Indianapolis Colts on Tuesday, per Omar Kelly of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel. Running back is certainly a positional need for the Colts, but Williams shouldn't necessarily be viewed as the answer to the problem. In 2017, Williams rushed for 181 yards on 46 carries, and caught 20 passes for 155 yards and a touchdown. If he does sign, the running back competition in Indianapolis will include Josh Ferguson, Matt Jones, Robert Turbin, and Marlon Mack.
Damien Williams To Visit With Chiefs
Mar. 19, 2018
Free-agent running back Damien Williams will visit with the Kansas City Chiefs this week. With impressive youngster Kareem Hunt entrenched as the lead back in KC, Williams would strictly be vying for scraps with Spencer Ware if he lands with the Chiefs. In his four years with Miami, Williams had 133 carries for 477 yards (3.6 yards per carry) and three touchdowns, all coming in 2016. Williams wouldn't be much of a fantasy option unless Hunt were to be injured.

Damien Williams Linked With Jets

Miami Dolphins running back Damien Williams is set to be a free agent and Newsday reports the Jets will "be in play" for Williams. This might not be a great fit for the Jets, but the team does need to fill a void left by Matt Forte. Williams was mostly mothballed by the Dolphins in 2017, touching the ball just 66 times. Williams owns a 3.6 YPC for his career.

Damien Williams Inactive Against Buffalo
Dec. 31, 2017
As expected, Miami Dolphins running back Damien Williams (shoulder) is inactive in Week 17 against the Bills. In Williams' absence the last few weeks, Kenyan Drake has excelled in the lead-back role and will be an RB1 in Week 17 against a terrible Bills rushing defense. The Bills have given up the most fantasy points to opposing rushers in 2017.

Miami Dolphins running back Damien Williams (shoulder) remained limited at Thursday's practice. Williams resumed practicing two weeks ago but has not played a game since Week 12. Even if Williams gets the green light for Sunday's finale, he will likely work behind Kenyan Drake, who has averaged 126 yards from scrimmage over the last four weeks.

Damien Williams Listed As Doubtful
Dec. 22, 2017
Miami Dolphins running back Damien Williams (shoulder) is listed as doubtful for Week 16 against the Chiefs. That's great news for owners of Kenyan Drake, as he was looking at possibly losing some touches if Williams returned for this matchup. Drake should remain the clear workhorse after being a monster on the ground in the last several games with Williams inactive. Continue to fire up Drake as a strong RB2 with potential for RB1 output yet again.
DeVante Parker, Damien Williams Practicing Friday
Dec. 22, 2017
Miami Dolphins wide receiver DeVante Parker (ankle) and running back Damien Williams (shoulder) are both practicing Friday. Both players may wind up being questionable for Week 16 against the Chiefs, but both are expected to play. An inconsistent Parker at less than 100 percent isn't a great fantasy option, even in a fine matchup with KC. He'll be a boom-or-bust WR4/flex. Williams would only be the change-of-pace back to Kenyan Drake if he returns this weekend, making him an unattractive RB3/flex type.

Damien Williams Practicing Again Thursday
Dec. 21, 2017
Miami Dolphins running back Damien Williams (shoulder) appears to be practicing for the second straight day Thursday. While Williams may be on track to return in Week 16 against the Chiefs, he's unlikely to be anything more than a change-of-pace for Kenyan Drake, who has excelled in the last few weeks with Williams sidelined. Williams is a fantasy non-factor, although his potential return could be a hit to Drake's fantasy value.

Damien Williams Puts In Limited Practice
Dec. 20, 2017
Miami Dolphins running back Damien Williams (shoulder) was limited in practice Wednesday. It's progress for Williams, and he could be making his way towards suiting up in Week 16 against the Chiefs. However, even if he does play, he won't be fantasy viable with Kenyan Drake taking over the lead-back duties the last several weeks and running with it.
Damien Williams Inactive
Dec. 17, 2017
Miami Dolphins running back Damien Williams (shoulder) is inactive for Week 15 against Buffalo. Williams was ruled out on Saturday. He remains week-to-week, locking Kenyan Drake into an every-down role. Also inactive for Miami are quarterback Matt Moore, cornerback Cordrea Tankersley, safety Michael Thomas, defensive end Andre Branch, offensive guard Isaac Asiata and offensive lineman Jermon Bushrod.
Damien Williams Won't Play Against Bills
Dec. 16, 2017
Miami Dolphins running back Damien Williams (shoulder, illness) was downgraded from doubtful to out for Week 15 against the Bills. Kenyan Drake has been the team's workhorse running back the last two weeks with Williams out and has really been great for his fantasy owners. In an excellent matchup this weekend -- the Bills allow the most fantasy points to running backs per game -- Drake is an RB1 in fantasy semi-final matchups.
