Nerdy Football Analysis: Playing Williams in a meaningless Week 18 game against the Broncos has come back to bite HC Brandon Staley.

In his absence, we should see an increase in opportunity for Josh Palmer who had four games of double-digit targets during the regular season while Williams and Keenan Allen battled injuries.
