Rams' Darious Williams: Returns to practice Wednesday
Williams (hamstring) was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday.
The Rams now have 21 days to activate Williams to their active roster before he reverts to IR. Williams re-signed with the Rams this past offseason after a two-year stint in Jacksonville, during which he recorded 86 total tackles and 35 passes defended, including four interceptions, across 34 regular-season games. He's expected to start opposite Tre'Davious White as part of the Rams' top cornerback duo once he's fully recovered from his hamstring issue.

Rams' Darious Williams: Nearing return
Head coach Sean McVay told reporters Monday that Williams (hamstring) is expected to return to practice and have his 21-day window opened this week, Cameron DaSilva of USA Today reports.
Williams missed the Rams' first four games this season due to a hamstring injury sustained in late July, but following McVay's comments Monday, it appears he's nearing a return to the field. McVay told reporters at the beginning of September that Williams' target return date was Week 5, and he appears to be right on schedule. If Williams' 21-day window is opened and he's able to suit up against the Packers on Sunday, he'll serve as one of Los Angeles' top cornerbacks.

Rams' Darious Williams: Hopeful for Week 5 return
Coach Sean McVay said Friday "the hope" is Williams (hamstring) will be ready to come off IR and play Week 5, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
Williams will need to spend at least four games on IR while recovering from a hamstring injury he initially sustained in late July. Until Williams is back on the field, however, Cobie Durant will project to handle a starting role at cornerback across from veteran Tre'Davious White, beginning with Sunday night's regular-season opener against the Lions.

Rams' Darious Williams: Placed on injured reserve
The Rams placed Williams (hamstring) on injured reserve Thursday.
Williams pulled his hamstring in late July and will now miss at least the first four games of the season on injured reserve. It's a big blow to the Rams' cornerback group, one that was remade in the offseason with the pickups of Williams and Tre'Davious White as the team's projected starters. Derion Kendrick was already lost for the year to a torn ACL, and Cobie Durant is dealing with a hamstring issue of his own that has limited him in practice this week. The Rams have a road date with the Lions this coming Sunday night.
