The Facts: Less than a week after being released by the Detroit Lions, Williams is signing a deal with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported, via a source informed of the situation.

Diehards Line: Williams joins his sixth team on his career since entering the league in 2013 as a seventh-round pick with the Indianapolis Colts. The signing, though, reunites Williams with Buccaneers head coach Bruce Arians and offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich, as the trio were together with the Arizona Cardinals from 2014 to 2017. Williams previously had short offseason stints with the Chargers in 2013 and Chiefs in 2018. The addition of Williams provides depth in the Buccaneers' backfield, and he might come with an edge in the competition for touches behind Ronald Jones given Williams has played in Arians' offense in the past. On his career, Williams has 971 yards rushing and four touchdowns on 219 carries and 126 yards receiving on 15 catches.
