Bears' Nick Williams: Joining Detroit
Williams agreed to a two-year, $10 million deal with the Lions on Monday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM Radio reports.
The 30-year-old was out of the NFL in 2017 and appeared in two games in 2018, but he revitalized his career with 42 tackles (24 solo), six sacks and two fumble recoveries in 16 games last season for Chicago. The Lions are apparently still looking to add to their defensive line in free agency, but Williams was the first domino to fall.

Bears' Nick Williams: No sacks in last seven games
Williams recorded four tackles in the Bears' 21-19 victory over the Vikings in Week 17, and he concluded the season with 42 tackles in six sacks.
After posting six sacks over his first seven games, Williams failed to add another sack for the remainder of the season. He'll enter the offseason as an unrestricted free agent, and with this easily being the best performance of his five-year career, he'll likely sign somewhere where he can continue his role as a rotational player, but he may have too little consistency to be a reliable fantasy option.

Bears' Nick Williams: Tallies another sack
Williams notched a sack and three tackles in the Bears' 20-13 win over the Lions on Sunday.
Not only did Williams post at least three tackles for the fifth time in six games, but he also recorded his sixth sack of the season. Although he has clear downside on the weeks he's unable to sack the quarterback, his ability to consistently create pressure provides fantasy owners with weekly upside when they're unable to secure a consistent option.

Bears' Nick Williams: Records fifth sack of season
Williams recorded four tackles and a sack in Chicago's 22-14 loss to the Eagles on Sunday.
After Williams recorded sacks in the first three games he played this season, his fifth sack of the campaign broke a two-game drought. For a player who sees between 38 percent and 60 percent of the defensive snaps, the majority of his IDP value comes from his ability to sack the quarterback, and when he doesn't do so, he possesses significant downside.

Bears' Nick Williams: Stays hot
Williams notched a pair of sacks along with seven tackles in Chicago's 16-6 victory over the Vikings on Sunday.
Williams has now recorded at least one sack in each of his last three games, and his seven tackles accounted for more stops than he had in the previous three contests. With Akiem Hicks (knee), missing this game, Williams took advantage of his increased playing time, and if Hicks is forced to miss additional time, Williams' ability to pressure the quarterback will make him a useful IDP option.

Bears' Nick Williams: Another sack
Williams notched a sack and three tackles in the Bears' 31-15 win over Washington on Monday.
Williams played 38 snaps as the Bears' second-string nose tackle, but he's now picked up a sack in each of the last two games. He's not seeing enough work to be a reliable IDP, but his ability to get to the quarterback makes him a player to keep an eye on should he see an increased role on defense.
