Williams was signed to the active roster from the practice squad Tuesday.
Williams has played in three games so far for the Falcons this season, recording three tackles (two solo). The nine-year veteran had spent the first eight seasons of his career with the Bengals. With Erik Harris (pectoral) being placed on IR on Saturday, Williams will look to provide depth in the Falcons' secondary for the rest of the season, beginning Sunday against the Lions.
