Isaiah Williams - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates | FOX Sports

Coming to Cincinnati The Bengals claimed Williams off waivers Friday.

Impact Williams, an undrafted rookie from Illinois, appeared in two games with the Lions before being waived Thursday, catching two of his three targets for six yards across just eight offensive snaps. He'll likely serve as a depth piece in Cincinnati's wide receiver room as the season progresses.

Cut by Detroit The Lions waived Williams on Thursday.

Impact With Jameson Williams due back from his two-game suspension this week, Williams is the odd man out in Detroit's wide receiver room. In two appearances this season, Williams caught two passes for six yards on three targets. He's a candidate to land on the Lions' practice squad if he clears waivers.

Inactive Monday Williams (coach's decision) is inactive for Monday's game against the Seahawks.

Impact The wide receiver missed the last two games with an abdomen injury but was not listed on the injury report as recently as Thursday. Williams has yet to appear in a game this season. The Illinois product signed with Detroit as an undrafted free agent in May.

Clears injury report Williams (abdomen) was not listed on the Lions' injury report Thursday.

Impact Williams was yet to appear in a regular-season game, and he missed the Lions' last two contests due to an abdomen injury. He now appears to be past the issue, and the 23-year-old rookie wide receiver will look to make his NFL debut against the Seahawks on Monday.

Questionable to play Week 3 Williams (abdomen) has been deemed questionable to play Sunday versus the Cardinals.

Impact Williams didn't play Week 2 against the Buccaneers due to an abdominal issue, and the injury kept him limited in all three of the Lions' practices this week. As such, he seems to be a true question mark for Sunday's clash with the Cardinals. Even if Williams is cleared to play Week 3, he isn't likely to see much (if any) work on offense since he's at the bottom of Detroit's wideout depth chart.

Limited Wednesday Williams (abdomen) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

Impact It appears Williams is still nursing the abdomen injury that held him out of the Lions' Week 2 loss to the Buccaneers. The rookie from Illinois' NFL debut could be put on hold again if he's not past this abdomen issue by the time of Sunday's contest. His practice participation Thursday and Friday will likely provide a better indication of his availability for Week 3.

SEPTEMBER 18 • ROTOWIRE

Missing Week 2 Williams (abdomen) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.

Impact The rookie wideout from Illinois popped up on the Lions' injury report Thursday with an abdomen issue, and after logging a DNP on Friday, he's been ruled out for Week 2. As of now, the only wide receivers on the Lions' active roster without injury designations are Amon-Ra St. Brown and Kalif Raymond.

Pops up on injury report Williams (abdomen) was listed as limited on Thursday's practice report.

Impact Williams practiced in full Wednesday, so this is a step backward for the Illinois product. He'll have an opportunity to ramp back up his activity level Friday, which should give a clear picture of his chances of suiting up Sunday against the Buccaneers.
