Report: Running back Darrel Williams headed to free agency

Kansas City Chiefs running back Darrel Williams will head to free agency, according to a report from NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo.

Garafolo notes that the Chiefs tried to reach an agreement with the 26-year-old unrestricted free agent, but the two sides weren’t able to come to terms.

Williams first joined the Chiefs as an undrafted free agent out of LSU back in 2018. Due to various injuries to starter Clyde Edwards-Helaire in 2021, Williams touched the football 134 more times than he did in 2020 — leading to much greater production.
