Williams showed up on the Chargers’ injury reports earlier this week, meaning his status for the Week 6 clash is unclear.

He didn’t practice with the team on Wednesday and Thursday after suffering a knee injury following the Week 5 clash.

Coach Brandon Staley said Williams’ knee had some swelling after last Sunday’s 47-42 win over the Cleveland Browns.

Him missing out on Week 6 will have an impact on his fantasy status but if he shows up and performs, then it’s on!
