  • Solid fourth-year production

    Williams totaled 59 tackles (39 solo), seven passes defended and three interceptions across 14 regular-season games in 2020.

    Analysis: He's now picked off 13 passes through his first four seasons and racked up at least 50 tackles in each campaign. Williams has been a key contributor on New Orleans' defense since arriving in the league, though his future with the team is unclear as he's set to become a free agent in 2021.

  • Garners full practice workload

    Williams (ankle) was a full practice participant Thursday.

    Analysis: Williams' status is looking promising for the Saints' wild-card matchup against Chicago, with the safety already having overcome practice restrictions from Wednesday. Given that New Orleans doesn't kick off until Sunday at 4:40 pm EST, Williams will be afforded extra recovery opportunity compared to players in earlier time slots. The 24-year-old is in line to make his first appearance since suffering a low-ankle sprain Week 15 against Kansas City, and his presence in the lineup will be…read more

  • Limited in Wednesday's practice

    Williams (ankle) was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's injury report.

    Analysis: Williams has missed the past two games due to an ankle injury, but it looks like he's beginning to improve as he was able to participate in some of Wednesday's practice. Expect P.J. Williams to continue taking over the safety's duties if Marcus Williams remains injured for Sunday's wild-card matchup against the Bears.

  • Set for second straight sit

    Williams (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Katherine Terrell of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Williams will miss a second straight game. P.J. Williams started at free safety in Williams' place during last week's win over the Vikings, and he should assume that role once again for the season finale.

  • Misses practice

    Williams (ankle) was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: Williams is nursing a low-ankle sprain and missed last week's victory over the Vikings as a result. He will likely need to show some signs of life at practice this week in order for him to have any chance at suiting up in the Saints' regular-season finale. Should the 24-year-old end up having to sit out again, look for P.J. Williams to be the primary beneficiary.

  • Won't play on Christmas

    Williams (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the VIkings.

    Analysis: The 24-year-old safety has been unable to contribute even a limited practice session this week, making it unsurprising that he's been confirmed out for Christmas Day due to his high-ankle sprain. Williams' absence will mark his first of the 2020 campaign and just the third of his four-year NFL career. P.J. Williams is the expected replacement at free safety, with the opposing Vikings aiming to keep postseason hopes alive by way of a road win.

  • Nursing low-ankle sprain

    Williams suffered a low-ankle sprain during Sunday's 32-29 loss to the Chiefs, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Williams was forced out of Sunday's narrow loss midway through the fourth quarter, but it looks as though he's avoided a serious injury. Still, it remains to be seen whether the starting safety will be available against the Vikings on Dec. 25. He'll undergo additional medical testing Monday.

  • Sustains ankle injury versus Chiefs

    Williams (ankle) has been labeled questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Chiefs, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.

    Analysis: The 24-year-old's absence depleted New Orleans' secondary down the stretch, as Kansas City proved capable of icing the win by virtue of a seven play, 34-yard drive on the game's final possession. Williams departed the contest at the 9:49 mark of the fourth quarter with two tackles to his name, leaving P.J. Williams as the fill-in at free safety. New Orleans faces a short week with a Christmas showdown against Minnesota on the schedule for Friday.

  • Leads team in tackles

    Williams recorded seven tackles (five solo) in the Saints' 24-21 loss to the Eagles on Sunday.

    Analysis: Williams paced Philly in tackles Sunday, racking up seven for the second week in a row. He'll likely be busy in Week 15, when the Saints host Kansas City and its explosive offense.

  • Another interception in Week 11 win

    Williams produced three tackles (two solo) and an interception in the Saints' 24-9 win over the Falcons on Sunday.

    Analysis: Williams came away with his second pick in three games, as New Orleans' defense stifled Matt Ryan and company all afternoon. Williams will look to keep up the strong play in Week 12 when the Saints face the turnover-prone Drew Lock.

  • Another pick in Week 9 victory

    Williams totaled one solo tackle and an interception in the Saints' 38-3 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.

    Analysis: Williams came away with one of the Saints' three interceptions Sunday - his second of the season. The ball hawk is now up to 12 career interceptions halfway into his fourth NFL season. He'll look to add to that total when the Saints face Nick Mullens and San Francisco in Week 10.

  • Six tackles in Week 7 victory

    Williams totaled six tackles (three solo) in the Saints' 27-24 win over the Panthers on Sunday.

    Analysis: Williams tied with Marshon Lattimore for team lead in tackles Sunday, accomplishing that feat for the first time since Week 2. He'll look to build on this performance in a Week 8 date with the Bears.

  • Leads team in tackles

    Williams totaled nine tackles (seven solo) in the Saints' 34-24 loss to the Raiders on Monday.

    Analysis: Williams led the team in tackles Monday, as he improved significantly from his one-tackle performance in Week 1. With a primetime matchup against Green Bay on tap for Week 2, Williams should have his work cut out for him against Aaron Rodgers, Aaron Jones and Co.

  • Nabs interception in Sunday's win

    Williams finished with one tackle, one pass defended and an interception in Sunday's 34-23 win over the Saints.

    Analysis: Williams recorded his 11th career interception, though he only managed one tackle in the victory. After talk of improving his tackling this season, Williams isn't off to a great start in that category, though his ability to force turnovers certainly keeps him in the discussion as a weekly IDP play.

  • Working on improved tackling

    Williams plans to focus on his tackling this offseason, Luke Johnson of Nola.com reports.

    Analysis: According to Williams, "I definitely have to improve my tackling. Last year was a down year." Head coach Sean Payton echoed those sentiments as well. Aside from the career-low 55 tackles (40 solo) in 2019, Williams had a solid season, nabbing four picks and scoring his first defensive touchdown, while breaking up a career-best 13 passes (second in the NFL). If he can indeed improve in the tackling department, Williams' value -- both real-world and fantasy -- should grow in his fourth NFL season.

  • Leads team in tackles Sunday

    Williams recorded 10 tackles (five solo) in the Saints' 26-20 overtime loss to the Vikings on Sunday.

    Analysis: Williams led the Saints in tackles Sunday, though he was unable to force any turnovers in the narrow loss. He ended the regular season with a career-low 55 tackles (40 solo), though he recorded four interceptions for the second time in his three-year career and scored his first touchdown. Williams is under contract for just one more season in New Orleans, and, with 10 interceptions to his name already, he'll likely be looking to capitalize on that production in the form of a more lucrative deal.

  • Practicing without limitations

    Williams (groin) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Mike Triplett of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Williams appears to have fully recovered from the groin injury that caused him to sit out Week 17's win over the Panthers. He's on track to draw his usual start at safety during Sunday's playoff contest against the Vikings.

  • Sitting out Sunday

    Williams (groin) won't play in Sunday's season finale against the Panthers, Amie Just of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

    Analysis: Williams suffered the injury Week 16 and consequently sat out all three practice sessions this week. With fellow safety Vonn Bell (knee) also sidelined, it appears Chauncey Gardner-Johnson and D.J. Swearinger are in line to receive the starts at the safety positions.

  • Misses practice Wednesday

    Williams (groin) did not participate in Wednesday's walk-through.

    Analysis: Williams departed Sunday's win with the issue. Chauncey Gardner-Johnson saw the largest uptick in playing time due to the 23-year-old's absence.

  • Picks up injury

    Williams (groin) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Titans.

    Analysis: The field conditions have been less-than stellar in Tennessee, which could have caused the groin injury. In any event, with Williams sidelined, look for Chauncey Gardner-Johnson and J.T. Gray to get an uptick in safety snaps.

  • Makes house call in win

    Marcus Williams recorded three tackles (all solo), one interception and a defensive touchdown in the Saints' 34-17 blowout victory over the Buccaneers on Sunday.

    Analysis: Williams snagged his fourth pick of the year and has now recorded an interception in back-to-back contests. His pick-six essentially iced the game as he took an errant Jameis Winston pass 55 yards for a score. Williams will look to take advantage of a plus matchup in Week 12 against Kyle Allen, who just threw four picks against Atlanta in Week 11.

  • Grabs third interception of season

    Williams recorded seven tackles (five solo) and an interception in the Saints' 26-9 loss to the Falcons on Sunday.

    Analysis: It was his highest tackle total of the season, likely due to the Falcons putting up an unexpected 26 points in the Saints' blowout loss. Williams snagged his third pick of the season and his first since Week 4. He's been a bit light in the tackle department this season, though his interception upside makes him a boom-or-bust IDP option.
