Buccaneers' DJ Williams: Gets extended look Saturday
Williams rushed 10 times for 29 yards and brought in his only target for six yards in the Buccaneers' 17-14 preseason win over the Bengals on Saturday night.

The undrafted rookie from Arizona is battling Tucker for a reserve running back role behind the projected top duo of Rachaad White and Bucky Irving, and he should be in line for another solid allotment of playing time in a preseason road matchup against the Jaguars on Saturday night.
