jamiezzz Posted September 2, 2020 Posted September 2, 2020 Didn't see this topic created, but may have missed it looking back a few pages. My apologies if this has already been posted. https://www.buffalorumblings.com/2020/8/30/21407999/buffalo-bills-sign-rb-antonio-williams-again#comments Running back Antonio Williams is heading back to the Buffalo Bills, per a report from Ryan Talbot. Williams has had quite the spring and summer after being picked up as an undrafted free agent by the Bills following the 2020 NFL Draft. With rosters doing a little trimming early this year, Antonio Williams was released by Buffalo on August 5. Two weeks later it was announced that Williams was joining his alma mater UNC as a student assistant coach while working toward his degree. While the Tar Heels are expected to be playing this year, one more chance to make it onto an NFL roster is a tough opportunity to pass up. With roster cuts coming in just under one week and no preseason games to highlight his skills, Williams may be banking on a different path to the regular season. Zack Moss was listed as a non-contact participant during Sunday’s practice and Taiwan Jones has been missing time with a knee injury. With the injury to Jones seemingly more significant at the moment Williams’s return to Western New York is likely an insurance plan in the event the special teams ace can’t suit up for the regular season. 1

jamiezzz Posted September 2, 2020 Author Posted September 2, 2020 I'm assuming he's a camp body, or possibly a spot on ST. As some have mentioned, I don' feel, if true, this has any affect on us signing Fournette. JMO.
YoloinOhio Posted September 2, 2020 Posted September 2, 2020 They were reported to be re-signing him prior to fournette’s release so no impact 21 minutes ago, jeremy2020 said: Does he make it to Saturday? Maybe but Only until Sat afternoon

Westside Madness Posted September 3, 2020 Posted September 3, 2020 (edited) I assume he is going PS. Bring him in just to reacquaint with folks prior to cut down and PS add. Edited September 3, 2020 by Westside Madness

Rochesterfan Posted September 9, 2020 Posted September 9, 2020 43 minutes ago, YoloinOhio said: Poor guy My guess is he will be back and forth a few times depending on the team needs. It is a rough life for some of these guys and this year is going to be especially bad. I expect the Bills will be moving people on and off the PS with regularity as minor injuries creep up to assure they have the depth they want.

Unsure because not sure if Harrison is a PS type or a rostered type. Not sure of his options but reportedly the Jets were looking for him to possibly come back at some point
