With Clyde Edwards-Helaire (shoulder) ruled out, Williams figures to see added touches in Sunday's game against the Bengals.
Also in mix for increased Week 17 work is fellow RB Derrick Gore, while Jerick McKinnon is now off IR to to provide Kansas City with added backfield depth versus Cincinnati. Though some form a time-share figures to be in play Sunday, Williams has an opportunity log enough touches to merit fantasy lineup consideration in Edwards-Helaire's absence.
