This comes afterย Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reported that the Bills are signing veteran Sย James Ihedigbo to a contract on Tuesday, so they would obviously need a roster spot, likely in the secondary.
Williams, 26, is a former fourth-round pick of the Bills back in 2013. He’s currently in the final year of his four-year, $2.630 million contract and stands to make a base salary of $675,000 for the 2016 season.
In 2016, Williams has appeared in nine games and recorded four tackles, no interceptions and a pass defense.
We’ll have more regarding Williams’ status with the team as the news is available.
