Dolphins head coach Brian Flores said earlier this week that Williams was day-to-day with a foot injury, but said on Wednesday that Williams will be going on injured reserve.
“More significant than we thought,” Flores said, via Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald.
Williams will miss at least three games as a result of the move and Flores declined to give a timeline on when the team expects him back. Williams left the game after scoring a touchdown on the second quarter. His left foot was held and twisted by a Cardinals defender as he leaped into the end zone and he appeared to be stepping gingerly with his right foot after defensive tackle Christian Wilkins jumped on him during a celebration.

Sad news. Felt like he was stepping up his game. Between him and Parker, I think WR is almost top priority next year.

Aw man!!! First Sheehan, then Gaskins and now Williams? CRAP!!!!!!!!!

That said I'd still rather have him than not because our WR depth is very suspect after trading Ford. -

I feel like he is a WR version of Ajayi, limited shelf life so squeeze the juice while its fresh and trade him.Finatik likes this. -
Maybe he's never a true #1 but for today, we don't need him to be. With that said though, Grant has filled that role nicely since folks can't cover him for long either.mlb1399 likes this. -
He has all the physical ability to be a borderline #1 guy but at least in my opinion hes poor at using his skill set with any sort of consistency. -
If he does fully develop into a fringe #1 though, then maybe we can't afford him in 3 years. So I'm not sweating it either way for the moment. -
I truly believe that WR depth deteriorates less quickly than corner depth. Meaning if I have 5 WR my 5th should always be better than your 4th or 5th coverage man. That's my goal offensively, to be able to run out any formation successfully whether it's two wide or 5 wide. -
