The Cincinnati Bengals re-signed running back Trayveon Williams right before free agency’s legal tampering period opened on Monday.
Cincinnati announced the move as a one-year contract extension.
Williams joined the Bengals via the sixth round in the 2019 draft and has carved out a role on special teams while rushing for five yards per carry over 62 regular-season attempts.
With sophomore Chase Brown assuming the change-of-pace role behind Joe Mixon, Williams could have a prominent role on special teams again in 2024. Cincinnati, though, projects to further add to the position in free agency and/or the draft, with Chris Evans as the other name on the roster.
