Falcons Release Damien Williams
The Atlanta Falcons released veteran running back Damien Williams (ribs) on Monday, according to a source. Williams is said to be "100 percent healthy and well-rested." Williams had been on Injured Reserve with the Falcons and hasn't played since the season opener. The 30-year-old is still hoping to play this year, but it remains to be seen if another organization will take a chance on him with four games remaining in the regular season. In 12 games (two starts) for the Chicago Bears in 2021, Williams had 40 carries for 164 yards and two touchdowns, adding 16 receptions on 23 targets for 103 yards and one touchdown in the passing game. Williams should remain on the waiver wire in all single-year fantasy leagues.

Damien Williams Placed On IR
Atlanta Falcons running back Damien Williams (ribs) has been placed on injured reserve ahead of the team's Week 2 matchup with the Los Angeles Rams. Williams was already ruled out for the contest earlier in the week but now will miss at least the next four games after sustaining a rib injury early in Week 1. In Williams' absence, Cordarrelle Patterson figures to handle the bulk of the running back touches and rookie Tyler Allgeier will likely get involved.

Damien Williams Ruled Out For Week 2
Atlanta Falcons running back Damien Williams (rib) has been ruled out for the Week 2 contest against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday. Williams missed practice all week after picking up the injury in the Week 1 loss to the New Orleans Saints. He was expected to have a big role as Cordarrelle Patterson's backup, but he finished with only two carries for two yards on 10 offensive snaps. With Williams now officially out this weekend, it should mean that rookie Tyler Allgeier, who was a healthy scratch in Week 1, will make his NFL debut and serve as the primary backup to Patterson. Avery Williams could also be involved, though, so Allgeier will be a stretch for standalone fantasy appeal in starting lineups.

Damien Williams Misses Thursday's Practice
Atlanta Falcons running back Damien Williams (ribs) did not practice on Thursday. He missed most of the Week 1 loss to the New Orleans Saints with a rib injury and couldn't practice this week. The 30-year-old is trending in the wrong direction to suit up for Week 2 against the Los Angeles Rams. He will have one more chance to practice on Friday. Williams finished with two carries for two yards and only 13% of the offensive snaps in Week 1. Avery Williams and Tyler Allgeier would see an uptick in snaps if Williams is ruled out against the Rams.

Damien Williams Unable To Practice Wednesday
Atlanta Falcons running back Damien Williams (ribs) missed most of the Week 1 loss to the New Orleans Saints with a rib injury, and he wasn't able to practice on Wednesday. The good news is that Williams was able to return late in the season-opening loss, but he finished with just two carries for two yards and played only 13% of the offensive snaps. The 30-year-old still has some time to return to the practice field this week, but as of now, he should be considered questionable to suit up for Week 2 against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday. Williams is unlikely to have standalone fantasy value as long as Cordarrelle Patterson remains healthy. If he's forced to sit this weekend, rookie Tyler Allgeier, who was inactive in Week 1, should suit up and have a much bigger role.

Damien Williams Avoids Serious Injury
Atlanta Falcons running back Damien Williams (ribs) is believed to have avoided serious injury. The 30-year-old mentioned his ribs are sore, but he didn't suffer any broken ribs during their contest with the New Orleans Saints. Williams was forced to exit in the first quarter of Sunday's loss. It sounds like he should be good for their Week 2 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. Sadly, Williams won't have a ton of fantasy value behind Cordarrelle Patterson in Atlanta.

Damien Williams Exits With Rib Injury
Atlanta Falcons running back Damien Williams suffered a rib injury in the first quarter of Sunday's season opener versus the New Orleans Saints. He is questionable to return. The news leaves Cordarrelle Patterson as the Falcons' lone running back since Tyler Allgeier was a healthy scratch. Fullback Keith Smith could also get involved out of the backfield.
