Limited to return duties in 2024
Williams did not record a carry or target across 17 regular-season games in 2024, but he did finish with 408 kick return yards and 185 punt return yards.
ANALYSIS
After sitting out the entire 2023 campaign due to a torn ACL in his knee, Williams was able to earn a spot on the Falcons' 53-man roster for the 2024 campaign. With the Falcons' backfield dominated by Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier, Williams was exclusively used on special teams as a returner on both kickoffs and punts, but he managed to record six tackles (two solo) while on coverage duties. Williams will enter the offseason as an unrestricted free agent and should get plenty of interest from teams looking to add a return specialist who could also contribute out of the backfield.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2022
Williams is coming off a lost 2023 season after tearing his ACL during an offseason workout. In 2022, he rushed 22 times for 109 yards and a touchdown while securing 13 of 14 targets for 61 yards. He also totaled 313 kick-return yards and 292 punt-return yards. Williams is competing with 2023 UDFA Carlos Washington for a 53-man roster spot, but the former's return abilities likely give him the upper hand.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Could see increased role in Week 2
With Damien Williams on IR due to a rib injury, Avery could see an increased role in Atlanta's offense moving forward, Scott Bair of the Falcons' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Avery Williams transitioned from defense to running back this offseason and has excelled at his new position so far. He operated as the No. 3 RB behind Damien Williams and Cordarrelle Patterson during the season opener and could be in store for a promotion in Week 2 with Damien Williams ruled out. However, rookie fifth-round pick Tyler Allgeier is also a candidate to make his NFL debut and projects as a more likely option to fill in as the primary backup. The Falcons also elevated Caleb Huntley from the practice squad, but he's expected to be an emergency depth option.
