Cheekily, Williams' new teammate Chase Daniel broke the news on social media. The 33-year-old is a pure depth signing at this stage of his career, especially after missing over half of 2022 with a biceps injury. If Williams makes the 53-man roster, he will be tasked with stopping the run. 

A 30-year-old journeyman, Williams had made zero career starts before last season. He notched the first six sacks of his career in the process, providing 531 solid snaps for the Bears. There was nothing in his profile that suggested he should be a free agent target for someone else, but Lions coach Matt Patricia clearly liked what he saw in the sides' two meetings. Even at a bargain price, this one could quickly look like an overpay.

After posting six sacks over his first seven games, Williams failed to add another sack for the remainder of the season. He'll enter the offseason as an unrestricted free agent, and with this easily being the best performance of his five-year career, he'll likely sign somewhere where he can continue his role as a rotational player, but he may have too little consistency to be a reliable fantasy option.

Not only did Williams post at least three tackles for the fifth time in six games, but he also recorded his sixth sack of the season. Although he has clear downside on the weeks he's unable to sack the quarterback, his ability to consistently create pressure provides fantasy owners with weekly upside when they're unable to secure a consistent option.
