Saints CB PJ Williams Reportedly Suspended for 2 Weeks; Started 5 of 1st 6 Games

New Orleans Saints cornerback P.J. Williams has been suspended for the team's next two games, according to Field Yates of ESPN.

Saints beat reporter Sean Fazende noted the suspension is for violating the NFL's substance abuse policy.

The 26-year-old had started five of the team's first six games this season, often covering the slot. While Marshon Lattimore and Eli Apple handle the majority of work on the perimeter, Williams has still played a major role while playing 80.1 percent of defensive snaps in 2019, per Pro Football Reference.
