Officially activated from IR
The Cardinals activated Williams (knee) from their injured reserve list Wednesday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Williams has been out since the first quarter of Arizona's first game this season due to a knee injury, but it now seems that he's finally nearing a return ahead of Week 12. Kelvin Beachum has played relatively well in Williams' absence, and coach Jonathan Gannon said Wednesday that the team would "weigh all the variables" before deciding whether to put him back into his place at right tackle once he's available again, so it sounds like even if he's fully healthy for Sunday's game at Seattle, his status as a starter may not be guaranteed.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Has competition at left tackle
Williams isn't guaranteed to start at left tackle after signing a two-year, $30 million contract with the Cardinals, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Williams' hefty contract suggests he's the favorite to protect Kyler Murray's blind side, but Weinfuss notes that both Williams and 2023 first-round draft pick Paris Johnson have experience at left tackle and right tackle. Weinfuss expects the team to evaluate Williams and Johnson at those positions in camp before deciding which player starts at left tackle and which one plays right tackle.
