Williams picked up 10 carries for 53 yards and a touchdown in Thursday's preseason finale against Detroit.
Williams received the start and was busy throughout the first quarter before eventually giving way to Joe Banyard, who finished with 14 carries for 68 yards and a touchdown. While Banyard may have played his way onto the roster with a strong preseason, Mike Tolbert is the bigger threat to Williams' backup duties, with the former Panther representing a proven asset on passing downs and in short-yardage spots.
