    Falcons head coach Jim Mora says second-round CB Jimmy Williams would start if the season began today.
    Jason Webster would be the nickel. Williams, who has good size and can tackle, isn’t a bad rookie IDP target.
  • SF Defensive Back
    Falcons FS Jimmy Williams was reportedly charged with misdemeanor marijuana possession in early June.
    Great timing for this to come out. Williams says he is innocent, but is scheduled to be in court on December 3. The 2006 second-round pick had been penciled in as Atlanta’s starting free safety, ahead of Chris Crocker.
  • SF Defensive Back
    With Antoine Harris playing over him in passing situations and Chris Crocker beating him out to start at free safety, Jimmy Williams has been relegated to special-teams work.
    Quite a fall for the 2006 second-round pick who was penciled in as a starter heading into the season. “We’re just trying to get Jimmy doing a little bit better on special teams,” defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer said. “That’s really what it is.”
  • SF Defensive Back
    Jimmy Williams has been getting most of the reps as the Falcons’ starting free safety at training camp.
    Chris Crocker is dealing with a knee problem, but Williams appears to be separating himself. The Falcons are high on Williams’ hitting and coverage ability, but their secondary will likely be a liability no matter who wins the gig.
  • SF Defensive Back
    Jimmy Williams is expected to start at free safety for Atlanta this week.
    Chris Crocker is dealing with a knee injury, but the 2006 second-round pick has stepped up his play during practice and may have won the job on merit.
  • FA Defensive Back #25
    S Chris Crocker (knee) sat out Wednesday’s practice.
    Crocker suffered a bone bruise in the preseason finale and coach Bobby Petrino indicated that he’s not likely to play in Week 1, with Jimmy Williams set to start in his place. DT Rod Coleman had limited participation in practice Wednesday.
  • NE Defensive Back
    Lewis Sanders has held off rookie Chris Houston to be the Falcons’ starting right cornerback.
    This is one ugly-looking secondary. Take note for fantasy matchup purposes. Chris Crocker has also held off Jimmy Williams as the team’s free safety.
  • FA Defensive Back #25
    Falcons starting FS Chris Crocker suffered a bone bruise in his right knee during the team’s preseason finale.
    Crocker will be replaced by Jimmy Williams if he misses the opener.
  • FA Defensive Back #25
    Falcons FS Chris Crocker moved back into the starting lineup in Week 3.
    Crocker racked up six tackles (five solo) and a sack, while Jimmy Williams didn’t make the box score. It appears Crocker has fully reclaimed the job.
  • FA Defensive Back #25
    The Falcons don’t plan to re-sign free agent FS Chris Crocker.
    Crocker, a natural strong safety, was playing out of position in Atlanta. Jimmy Williams is the top in-house choice to fill in, but he would need competition.
