FAYETTEVILLE — Tailback Rawleigh Williams and members of his family will huddle with the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville medical team and Coach Bret Bielema this week to go over his latest medical tests and discuss his future, a source with knowledge of the situation told the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette on Tuesday.
University officials expect to make an announcement on Williams’ status at some point next week, the source said.
Williams, a junior who rushed for 1,360 yards in 2016 in his comeback from surgery on Oct. 24, 2015, to replace and fuse a ruptured disc in the upper part of his neck, suffered some type of neurological injury in Saturday’s spring practice finale.
