Washington Signs Jonathan Williams To One-Year Deal
3 years agoThe Washington Football Team signed running back Jonathan Williams and cornerback Corn Elder to one-year deals on Tuesday. Financial terms of the deals were not disclosed. Williams and Elder will remain with Washington through the 2022 season. Williams, 27, played in just five games in 2021 and had 17 carries for 79 yards and one touchdown while also catching four passes for an additional 28 yards in the passing game. Antonio Gibson, J.D. McKissic and rookie Jaret Patterson were ahead of Williams on the RB depth chart, so it's no surprise that he didn't see the field much. There's a chance that Williams could move up the depth chart if McKissic goes elsewhere in free agency, but Williams still wouldn't be attractive in single-year fantasy leagues.
