The Baltimore Ravens made a big splash in 2022 free agency with the signing of former New Orleans Saints safety Marcus Williams. The team added him on a five-year, $70 million deal, and will. be expecting him to do big things in a Baltimore uniform.
During the first day of mandatory minicamp, Williams was limited to only individual drills, not participating in team drills. Ravens head coach John Harbaugh spoke about the status of Williams, revealing that he’s working through some physical things while also saying that it was nothing major.

Ravens FS Marcus Williams, their top FA signing, didn’t participate in team drills.
“He’s working through some physical things,” John Harbaugh said. “There are certain guys that have issues that they’re dealing with that they’re going at the pace they can. It’s nothing major.”

It’s unclear when Williams will begin participating in team drills, but for now he will seemingly continue to work to get back onto the field fully. He is slated to be a big part of Baltimore’s defense, so every rep he can get as a new player on the team will be beneficial to him. The fact that Harbaugh believes there’s nothing major going on is good news, but it will be refreshing once the safety is able to participate in practice fully.
