Antonio Williams caught 5-of-7 targets for 54 yards in the Commanders’ Week 8 win over the Eagles. 2026-11-02 01:00:01 Williams mostly operated in a short area role but added a 30-yard grab up the seam in the fourth quarter to pad his counting stats for fantasy managers hoping on a second-half rookie breakout. While the fantasy returns have yet to pop, managers can continue to hold the electric rookie in the hopes his role grows in the coming weeks. That said, he is likely best left on fantasy benches until his route structure improves. |

Antonio Williams caught 3-of-4 targets for 50 yards in the Commanders’ Week 6 loss to the 49ers. 2026-10-20 00:00:02 While the yardage total looks solid on paper, the fact that Williams had only four targets in a game in which veteran wide receiver Terry McLaurin departed in the first quarter and quarterback Jayden Daniels attempted 40 passes in concerning. Williams continues to flash big play upside through a multitude of injuries to teammates but has yet to fully take advantage of the increase in opportunity, something fantasy managers will hope corrects when the Commanders come out of their bye to face the Eagles in Week 8. |

Antonio Williams caught 3-of-8 targets for 21 yards in the Commanders’ Week 4 loss to the Colts. 2026-10-04 16:00:02 With Terry McLaurin out, Williams fully took over as the team’s No. 2 receiver. His eight targets were good for a 22 percent target share and he led the Commanders in routes. The bad news is that the offense struggled after Marcus Mariota went down with a knee injury. That happened in the first quarter, so Washington had a third-string quarterback under center for the majority of this game. If the role sticks, Williams could be a viable FLEX play once Jayden Daniels returns. The Commanders’ injury report will be one to watch heading into Week 5. |

Antonio Williams caught 2-of-4 targets for 15 yards in the Commanders’ Week 3 win over the Seahawks. 2026-09-27 17:00:02 The Commanders were able to put up an impressive 34 points — six of those coming on a pick six, but still — against the Seahawks, but Williams had little to do with it with a long gain of nine. The 2026 third-round pick has a chance to be a solid PPR play at some point, but Williams is much more of a dynasty option than a redraft one at this stage. He’ll likely be the third wideout for Washington in Week 4 against the Colts. |

Antonio Williams caught 3-of-3 targets for 24 yards in the Commanders’ Week 2 loss to the Cowboys. 2026-09-20 21:00:01 Williams tied Dyami Brown for the second-most routes run (24) by any Commanders receiver, but he saw one fewer target than he did in his rookie debut. The rookie receiver came up short on an opportunity for a wide-open touchdown pass to Terry McLaurin on a trick play, which was the closest he came to generating a big play in this one. All three of Williams’ targets came on the second-to-last drive of the game for the Commanders. There’s far too much target competition here to consider Williams a viable fantasy asset in Week 3’s game against the Seahawks. |
