Raiders' Seth Williams: Reverts to injured reserve
Rotowire
Williams (undisclosed) reverted to the Raiders' injured-reserve list Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

The 2021 sixth-round pick hasn't seen NFL regular-season action since his rookie campaign with the Broncos, when he played 61 snaps (47 on offense, 14 on special teams) over two games and logged one reception for 34 yards, although he did play in four combined regular-season and postseason games with the UFL champion DC Defenders this past spring.
