Williams was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list and will play in Sunday's matchup against the Giants.
This always seemed like the expectation after Williams was originally placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list due to being a close contact to Keenan Allen. With Allen officially sidelined ahead of Sunday's matchup, the 2017 first-round pick will operate as the team's No. 1 option with less heralded targets such as Jalen Guyton and Josh Palmer likely forcing a larger funnel toward the big-bodied pass catcher.
