Could increased competition jeopardize Jamaal Williams’ roster spot?

When the Green Bay Packers selected Jamaal Williams in the fourth round of the 2017 NFL Draft, they did so believing he or fellow selection Aaron Jones could emerge as a bellcow in the backfield. Over two seasons, Williams has rushed for over 1,000 yards and added value as a third-down back as one of the team’s best pass-blocking running backs. And in Jones’ absence, Williams has had a few shining moments, like his performance against the New York Jets during the final stretch of last season.
