Trayveon Williams
RB - Cincinnati Bengals
Availability
The Bengals released RB Trayveon Williams.
Fantasy Impact
Williams was released to make room for the Bengals adding DE K.J. Henry off waivers. He will look to land another opportunity.
Trayveon Williams carried the ball once for two yards in the Bengals' 25-17 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 17.
Fantasy Impact
Williams has remained minimally involved in the Bengals offensive attack, seeing three touches or less in each of his 13 games this season for the Bengals. Fantasy managers can leave the running back off rosters in all formats ahead of a Week 18 contest against the Cleveland Browns.
Trayveon Williams did not record a touch in a 34-31 overtime win over the Jaguars in Week 13.
Fantasy Impact
Williams played sparingly and ran a few routes but was not targeted in the contest. He appears to have been overtaken as the RB2 in Cincinnati by rookie Chase Brown, who logged nine carries. Williams can be sent to waivers in fantasy leagues this week as the Bengals prepare to take on the Colts in Week 14.
Trayveon Williams carried the ball three times for 13 yards in a 24-18 win over the Bills in Week 9.
Fantasy Impact
Williams' three carries go down as his busiest game of the season as Joe Mixon continues to dominate touches in the Cincy backfield. That being said, Williams would likely see the lead-back role if Mixon were to miss a game, which makes him a solid handcuff for fantasy managers. Williams and the Bengals will face the Texans in Week 10.
Trayveon Williams rushed for four yards on one carry in Bengals’ 19-16 win over the Rams. He also caught 0-of-2 targets in the win.
Fantasy Impact
Williams continues to operate as the backup to Joe Mixon, but is seeing limited work weekly. Fantasy managers can comfortably leave Williams on the waiver wire.
