Damien Williams placed on reserve/COVID list

Chicago Bears running back Damien Williams has been placed on the reserve/COVID list.

Fantasy Impact: 

Williams was slated to be the lead back for the Bears with David Montgomery sidelined but is now in serious danger of missing Week 6. If vaccinated, there is still a chance that he is cleared by Sunday morning (he will have to return two negative tests to do so), but the odds are stacked against him. Rookie running Khalil Herbert, who had 18 carries for 75 rushing yards in Week 5, will now operate as the starter and should be treated as an RB2 option.
