Williams, 25, hasn't played in the league since his rookie season in 2015.

The fifth-round draft pick from Florida State showed promise when he appeared
in 11 games for Buffalo, rushing for 517 yards and seven touchdowns and adding
11 catches for 96 yards and two scores.

After the Bills cut him during training camp the following year, Williams
signed with the Steelers' practice squad but never got on the field due to
multiple substance abuse violations.

He received a four-game suspension in July 2016, a 10-game ban in November
2016, and a minimum one-year suspension in June 2017.

A conditional reinstatement means Williams is free to sign with a team and
play next season, as long as he meets certain treatment conditions.
