2023 Fantasy Outlook
Williams started 12 games as a rookie but started a combined nine over the next three seasons, including just one last year. He finished with zero interceptions and 11 tackles. The 2019 second-rounder moved from Cleveland to Philadelphia in free agency, but he'll likely struggle to work his way into a starting role for his new team. Read Past Outlooks

Williams was cut by the Eagles on Saturday, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Williams, a 2019 second-round selection by the Browns, spent his first four years in Cleveland but saw his production decline significantly in 2022. He was looking for a fresh start in Philadelphia but was already falling behind some younger options at cornerback before the team ultimately opted to make this move. According to Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio, the 25-year-old is owed just $600,000 fully guaranteed of the total $1.35 million on his one-year contract. He will now be on the hunt for a new opportunity.

Williams is drawing trade interest, Brad Stainbrook of 247Sports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The cornerback missed the first five games of the season due to a hamstring injury, but Williams returned in Week 6 and has played 46 snaps in the Cleveland secondary over the last two contests. A second-round pick in 2019, he had a solid start to his career and allowed only one touchdown in coverage on 113 passes thrown his way during his first 28 NFL games.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2020
2019
Williams, a 2019 second-round draft pick, started 12 games during his rookie season. He recorded 47 tackles, two tackles for loss and two passes defensed. Williams was spotty in coverage, not unusual for a rookie cornerback in the NFL, allowing a 91.5 passer rating when targeted. New defensive coordinator Joe Woods will look to smooth out Williams' play in his second year. The 22-year-old cornerback excelled in man coverage at LSU but was asked to play more zone in the NFL. Woods has that experience in man coverage during his coaching history, so we could see improvement in 2020.
The Browns drafted Williams in the second round of the 2019 NFL Draft with the hope he'd compete for the starting cornerback job opposite Denzel Ward. At 6-2, Williams has the height and the downfield speed to stick with his man in coverage, though some think his lack of physicality will be an issue in the NFL. Still, the potential is there, and the Browns could be in possession of two lockdown corners for years to come.
