Adam Schefter reports that the Bears tried out former Lions and Saints RB Jamaal Williams.
Williams, 30, is a former fourth-round pick of the Packers back in 2017 out of BYU. He played out the final year of his four-year rookie contract in Green Bay and signed a two-year deal worth up to $7.5 million with the Lions in 2021.
From there, Williams joined the Saints on a three-year, $12 million deal. He eventually fell out of their rotation and didn’t play a big role for the team in 2024.
In 2024, Williams appeared in 14 games for the Saints and rushed 48 times for 164 yards (3.4 YPC) and a touchdown to go along with nine catches on 11 targets for 57 yards.
We will have more on Williams when it becomes available.
