'Simply put, this is great news for Williams. He enters the 2017 season as the favorite to win the No. 2 running back job behind LeSean McCoy after the team lost restricted free agent Mike Gillislee to the New England Patriots. Entering his second season, Williams will be given many opportunities to prove himself as the right complement to McCoy. As a rookie, Williams only carried the ball 24 times for 97 yards and one touchdown. Now that Williams is aware that he won't be suspended, he can focus on impressing the coaching staff and locking down the job at training camp.'
