My apologies, I've posted this way too many times to count but Williams will be 28 to start the season, has never been healthy for a full 16 game season in more than six years in the NFL and has 1,200 yards and 12 TD's total during that time.

Kareem Hunt had 1,300+ rushing yards and 8 TD's during his rookie season alone.

Talent isn't the issue with Williams, it's that he's constantly injured, going back to his days at OU, making him completely unreliable. Add to that, there's not a single back behind him on this roster that puts any fear in opposing defenses and Defensive Coordinators.

The bridge between hope and reality is a long one.

Yep.

The Chiefs definitely need to add a true feature back in the 2020 draft but they do not need to waste vital resources and money on Fournette.
