The Dallas Cowboys will be another running back short when they report for training camp this summer.The team waived Ryan Williams on Tuesday, ending his tenure with the franchise that failed to produce a single regular season snap out of their backfield.
Todd Archer of ESPN reported Williams had knee surgery after the team's minicamp in June, a proposition that limited his chances of joining the club considerably.
Injury had been a concern for Williams since the day the Cardinals drafted him out of the second-round in the 2011 NFL Draft, rupturing a patellar tendon in the first rush of his career, a preseason game against the Packers that August.
The new opening creates another stir around the Cowboys' rushing situation, created since DeMarco Murray left for the Eagles this March. Dallas insists they're happy with Darren McFadden, Murray's replacement, with Joseph Randle and Lance Dunbar behind him.
But with Chris Johnson, and now Ray Rice, making their names known ahead of training camp, that situation could change.
