Titans' James Williams: Increased role late in 2024
Rotowire
Williams tallied 26 tackles (17 solo) across 13 regular-season games in 2024.
Williams was snatched by the Titans in the seventh round of the 2024 NFL Draft, 242nd overall. He earned a spot on the 53-man roster after training camp and was mostly used in a special teams role. Williams saw more work late in the 2024 campaign due to the absence of Jerome Baker, and the former logged at least six combined tackles in three of the team's final four regular season games.

Titans' James Williams: Registers eight tackles vs. Bengals
Rotowire
Williams finished Sunday's 37-27 loss to the Bengals with eight tackles (six solo).
The rookie seventh-rounder started at inside linebacker Sunday due to Jerome Baker (coach's decision) being sidelined. Williams made the most of his opportunity by logging a career-best eight tackles while playing 60 snaps (41 on defense, 19 on special teams). It's unclear if Baker will be a healthy scratch for Week 16 against the Colts, but if he remains sidelined, Williams would be in line for another start alongside Kenneth Murray.
