Leonard Williams - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Unavailable Wednesday Williams (foot) did not participate at practice Wednesday, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

Impact Williams opened the week on the sidelines at practice for the second straight week as he continues to nurse a foot issue. On the bright side, the defensive lineman played 43 defensive snaps, logging four total tackles (two solo) in the team's Week 11 victory over the 49ers. He seems likely to play again Sunday versus the Cardinals, but his status at practice the rest of the week is worth monitoring.

Ready to rock Williams (foot) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the 49ers, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

Impact Williams upgraded from a DNP on Wednesday to a limited session Thursday, suggesting that he's moved past his foot issue enough to play in Sunday's divisional matchup. The veteran defensive lineman has recorded 21 total tackles, including 2.5 sacks, across eight appearances this season. He's expected to serve as one of Seattle's top defensive ends in Week 11.

Upgrades to limited practice Thursday Williams (foot) was a limited practice participant Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Impact Williams sat out practice Wednesday but was able to return to the field one day later. Seattle was on bye last week, so it's not clear when the veteran defensive end picked up the foot issue, which appears to be a new injury. Williams missed a game earlier in the campaign due to an injury to his ribs.
