Unrelated to the injury, I'm super glad the Bills didn't draft him. Expand After Shaq Lawson's experience with a torn labrum, I think the Bills were extra wary of that particular injury. 1

Reason I say that is that after the draft, a Cincy reporter said on radio that he told teams he would only play LT and not to draft him if they were going to try to play him elsewhere. Expand It’s interesting that a draft prospect that isn’t playing QB would tell teams to not draft him unless he gets what he wants. It’s make new think of the rumor that went around stating Anthony Johnson told the Bills to not draft him. Also, went from a projected mid round pick to being an UDFA which could have been a reason behind him falling.
Doc Brown Posted June 26, 2019 Posted June 26, 2019 They officially have a 1st round rookie curse. It's what happens when you make a ginger your franchise QB. It was my only hesitation in wanting Sam Darnold.

Just goes to show that the injury stuff that we don't find out about in the run-up to the draft is so important. What's wrong with the Bengals? Shades of Rex and Shaq Lawson! Expand "Williams initially suffered the injury in OTAs and Taylor wouldn't comment on the severity. That quickly morphed into the Bengals refusing to let Williams address it with the media, which gave the air of something significant potentially on the way.

Expand seems like it The Bengals announced Tuesday that Williams is expected to make a full recovery from the surgery, which repaired a torn labrum in his left shoulder. He was expected to be their starting left tackle. Cordy Glenn, who started at left tackle last season, is expected to again start there with Williams out.
YoloinOhio Posted June 26, 2019 Posted June 26, 2019 (edited) Interesting ... though not confirmed, it is likely he did have instability in that shoulder in college (based on a shoulder brace he wore), which can lead to a tear. Chao compared it to Lawson’s situation. https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/sports/pro-football-doc/story/2019-06-26/pfd-jonah-williams-shoulder-injury-bengals-labrum-brace Quote The likelihood is that Williams had a labral issue while in college. During his last two collegiate seasons, he was seen playing with a left shoulder strap, the kind that is used to stabilize shoulders when the labrum is torn. Expand Quote I am not being critical of the Bengals medical staff. (I even sat next to them at the NFL Combine evaluating players for almost 20 years.) It is entirely possible their doctors and trainers knew of the injury at the Combine and that the team felt Williams could play through his rookie campaign with the strap/brace and get it fixed later.
