Report: Patriots TE Michael Williams tears ACL

Share

Patriots tight end Michael Williams tore his left ACL at minicamp on Wednesday and is expected to be lost for the season and placed on injured reserve, the Boston Globe reported.

Williams, a converted offensive lineman and blocking tight end, was acquired from the Detroit Lions early last season. 

The injury could open up a tight end spot for, among others, free agent signee Clay Harbor or A.J. Derby, a sixth-round pick in 2015.
