Williams poised for expanded role with McLaurin out; slot vs. outside positioning unclear vs. Eagles.

With Terry McLaurin out for the season due to a torn patellar tendon, Williams is positioned to play an expanded role as the Commanders' receiver. He has already accumulated 205 yards on 26 targets in a limited role early in the season. The source notes Williams is a terrific athlete (4.41 40-time, 39.5-inch vertical at the combine) who was a zone beater at Clemson and is dangerous with the ball in his hands. The primary uncertainty is whether Williams or Stefan Diggs will occupy the slot role against the Eagles, who funnel targets to the slot and have struggled with coverage there.
