Working on the side Williams (knee) is working on the side during OTAs, Jess Root of USA Today reports.

Impact The starting right tackle was placed on injured reserve on Christmas Eve last year after aggravating a right knee injury that limited him to just six games in 2024. Williams did start all six games he appeared in, and he has started all 70 games he's played in across a five-year career with the Bengals and Cardinals. Arizona signed Williams to a two-year, $30-million deal last offseason, so the team will likely try to make good on its investment this fall.

Placed on IR due to knee injury The Cardinals placed Williams (knee) on injured reserve Tuesday, Zach Gershman of the team's official site reports.

Impact Williams aggravated a right knee injury during the Cardinals' overtime loss to the Panthers this past Sunday. He was already ruled out for Saturday's game against the Rams, but his placement on IR will also mean that he will miss the Cardinals' regular-season finale against the 49ers on Jan. 5. Williams started at right tackle in the six games he appeared in, and Jackson Barton will likely take over that spot for the final two games of the regular season.

Won't play in Week 17 Williams (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's clash against the Rams, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Impact Williams hurt his knee against the Panthers on Saturday and wasn't able to return to the game. Jackson Barton took over at right tackle for Williams in that contest. Though Barton has since reverted to the Cardinals' practice squad, he'll likely be elevated again Week 17 to start in Williams' stead.

Suffers knee injury vs. Panthers Williams (knee) is questionable to return against the Panthers, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Williams went down with a knee injury in the second half and it's unknown whether he'll be able to return to the field. Jackson Barton has hopped in at left tackle due to his absence.

Good to go Sunday Williams (illness) will play Sunday versus the Patriots, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Impact Williams was added to the injury report earlier Sunday with an illness but will be good to go versus New England. The 2019 first-round pick will once again serve as the team's starting right tackle.

DECEMBER 15, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Now questionable for Sunday Williams (illness) is questionable for Sunday's late-window matchup with the Patriots, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Impact The starting right tackle's status will be worth monitoring as the late window approaches Sunday. Williams suffered a knee injury in Arizona's season opener and missed the next nine games, but he has started all three since returning. Kelvin Beachum is his backup.

Good to go against Seattle Williams (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Impact Williams will return from a knee injury that he suffered in the Cardinals' regular-season opener. Williams will take over at right tackle for Kelvin Beachum for Sunday's contest.

NOVEMBER 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Officially activated from IR The Cardinals activated Williams (knee) from their injured reserve list Wednesday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.

Impact Williams has been out since the first quarter of Arizona's first game this season due to a knee injury, but it now seems that he's finally nearing a return ahead of Week 12. Kelvin Beachum has played relatively well in Williams' absence, and coach Jonathan Gannon said Wednesday that the team would "weigh all the variables" before deciding whether to put him back into his place at right tackle once he's available again, so it sounds like even if he's fully healthy for Sunday's game at Seattle, his status as a starter may not be guaranteed.

Ruled out for Week 9 Williams (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Bears, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Williams had his 21-day practice window opened by the team on Wednesday, but he isn't quite ready to make his return to the field following the knee injury he suffered in Week 1. The offensive lineman still has plenty of time to increase his workload at practice before the Nov. 20 deadline for his activation from injured reserve.

Nearing return Williams (knee) has been Ian Rapoport of NFL Network to return from injured reserve Wednesday.

Impact Williams suffered the injury Week 1 and has been sidelined ever since. He'll now have a 21-day window to practice with the team before needing to be placed back on the 53-man roster. However, if healthy enough, he could return as soon as Sunday against the Bears. The Alabama product was signed to a two-year. $30 million contract in free agency to anchor the right side of the Cardinals' offensive line, so his potential return should be a significant boost for Arizona.
