Roy Williams has big shoes to fill. The Dallas Cowboys wide receiver has to become the team’s new Terrell Owens. No pressure.
For the time being, Williams is slowed with a wrist injury to his left wrist. During a practice, Williams landed hard and sprained his wrist. The Cowboys are listed him as day-to-day but the injury isn’t expected to keep him out too long.
After being traded to the Cowboys last season from the Detroit Lions, he was quiet in his ten games. He had only 19 catches for 198 yards and one touchdown. In the fantasy football world, fantasy owners will want much more production in 2009.
In his career, he has shown very good potential. In his first three seasons with the Lions, he had at least seven touchdowns in each season. In 2006, he had a career-high 1,310 receiving yards.
For the 2009 fantasy football season, Williams is definitely a high-risk, high-reward type player. Since he’s the Cowboys’ number one receiver, he’ll likely be valued highly. But unless he significantly improves his production, he’ll be a bust.
