Leonard Williams is getting yet another tag, this time a non-football injury designation.

The defensive lineman who is playing 2020 under the franchise tag was relegated to the temporary injury list on Sunday after he reported to training camp with a sore hamstring. The injury was officially noted after Williams went through the team’s COVID-19 protocols and underwent his physical.

While the team goes through its acclimation process of conditioning and strength training, Williams will have to work on the side with trainers (and players such as Tae Crowder and Alex Tanney who have similar designations).
