Saints Promote RB Jonathan Williams To Active Roster

According to Mike Triplett, the Saints have promoted RB Jonathan Williams from their practice squad to the active roster.

Williams, 24, is a former fifth-round pick of the Bills back in 2016. He was in the second year of his four-year, $2.58 million contract when the Bills waived him coming out of the preseason.

Williams had a brief stint on to the Broncos’ practice squad before joining the Saints late last year. New Orleans cut Williams loose on Saturday and signed him to their practice squad after clearing waivers.

In 2016, Williams appeared in 10 games and rushed for 94 yards on 27 carries (3.5 YPC) and one touchdown.
