Bills HC Rex Ryan told reporters on Friday that veteran DT Kyle Williams‘ knee is not responding to treatment and his 2015 season is likely over, per Mike Rodak.
- Rodak adds that Williams is likely to be placed on season-ending injured reserve.
Last week, Ryan said that Williams was a “50/50” to return this year, but it sounds like there hasn’t been any progress since then.
Williams sustained a PCL injury close to a month ago that was expected to keep him out of the lineup for 3-4 weeks.
Williams, 32, signed a three-year, $22.95 million contract with the Bills back in March. He stands to make base salaries of $4.8 million (2015), $7 million (2016), and $10.5 million (2017) over the remainder of the contract.
This season, Williams has recorded 14 tackles and a sack for the Bills’ defense over the course of six games. Pro Football Focus has him rated as the No. 30 defensive tackle out of 69 qualifying players.
We’ll have more regarding Williams as the news is available.
