Terrance Williams Injury: Updates on Cowboys WR's Shoulder and Return

Dallas Cowboys, wide receiver Terrance Williams was dealing with a shoulder injury, but David Helman of DallasCowboys.com announced that he was ready to play against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday.

According to the Cowboys' injury report, Williams fully participated in practice leading up to the game, but he was still originally listed as questionable. 

The injury occurred in Week 5 against the Cincinnati Bengals, as Williams told Brandon George of the Dallas News that he sprained an AC joint in his right shoulder.

Williams has become a key component for Dallas' offense, averaging a strong 16.3 yards per reception in his career. He emerged as a full-time starter in 2014, with 10 of his 37 catches going for at least 20 yards. 

The Cowboys were battered last year en route to winning just four games. All-Pro wide receiver Dez Bryant missed seven games, while quarterback Tony Romo played only four games as a result of two different collarbone injuries.

With Romo injured once again, rookie Dak Prescott has taken over starting duties under center and has led the Cowboys to a 4-1 record to start the 2016 season. Williams has seen plenty of action, hauling in 16 catches for 236 yards and a touchdown.

Tight end Jason Witten remains one of the NFL's best safety nets, while Cole Beasley is an effective weapon out of the slot who figures to get more targets if Williams is forced to the sidelines during Week 6.
