The status of Buffalo Bills running back Karlos Williams is "up in the air" according to WKBW's Joe Buscaglia.
Karlos Williams Week 6 status ‘up in the air’ for Bills, fantasy owners
The Bills offense could use all the help it could get, and Karlos Williams would be a welcome addition. We break down the fantasy implications.


Williams sat out Week 5's victory vs. the Tennessee Titans with a concussion, as well as every practice in preparation for it. One day removed from the victory, no clarity can be found regarding Williams' availability for Week 6's matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals. If Williams can't play, a committee of Dan Herron, Boobie Dixon and Cierre Wood can be expected to man the backfield once again.
Fantasy impact: The injury bug has plagued so much of the Bills offense, with Sammy Watkins, LeSean McCoy, Charles Clay and Percy Harvin all being less than 100 percent. Williams can be included in that, as the rookie running back has proven capable of carrying the load in his limited time on the field. If he is cleared before Sunday, he has a fantastic matchup against a defense that just allowed 169 rushing yards to Thomas Rawls.
Williams will be a fringe RB1 if he gets significant practice time this week, but that remains a big if. For now, fantasy owners have to follow practice reports when they surface on Wednesday.
