According to ESPN’s Ben Baby, the Bengals are re-signing RB Trayveon Williams to the active roster.
In a corresponding move, Cincinnati is placing DT McKinnley Jackson on injured reserve.
Williams, 26, was a sixth-round pick by the Bengals out of Texans A&M back in 2019. He finished out his rookie deal with the team before re-signing to a one-year, $850,000 contract in 2022.
The Bengals once again brought Williams back on another one-year contract last year and did the same in March of 2024. He was among the final roster cuts after training camp this season.
In 2023, Williams appeared in all 17 games for the Bengals and rushed for 69 yards on 15 carries (4.6 YPC) to go along with seven receptions for 10 yards receiving and no touchdowns. He also totaled 290 kick return yards.
