Broncos' K'Waun Williams: Undergoes ankle surgery
K'Waun Williams underwent surgery on his left ankle Thursday, Chris Tomasson of The Denver Gazette reports.The expected recovery timeline of 12 weeks all but rules out the possibility of Williams returning this season, but there's good reason for optimism that he'll be ready to go again soon after the 2023 campaign wraps up.

Broncos' K'Waun Williams: Likely done for season
K'Waun Williams (ankle) is set to have another surgery Monday and probably won't return this season, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.Williams had ankle surgery at the end of August and was consequently placed on IR. Per Chris Tomasson of The Denver Gazette, the cornerback had been working out on a side field, but it was recently determined that he hasn't regained enough strength in his leg. That finding necessitated the need for a second surgery, which will almost certainly end Williams' season unless the Denver Broncos are able to get into the playoffs.

Broncos' K'Waun Williams: Headed to IR
The Denver Broncos placed K'Waun Williams (ankle) on injured reserve Thursday, Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.Troy Renck of Denver 7 News reported Monday that Williams was set to undergo a procedure for an ankle injury he sustained in early August.

Broncos' K'Waun Williams: Needs ankle surgery
K'Waun Williams (ankle) is scheduled to undergo a procedure that will sideline him an estimated eight weeks, Troy Renck of Denver 7 News reports.The timing of Williams' surgery forces a difficult decision on the Denver Broncos. The 31-year-old nickelback can be carried on the initial 53-man roster, then placed on short-term IR with the chance to return down the stretch of the 2023 season; alternatively, he can be placed on season-ending IR now to free up a roster spot ahead of final cuts. In either case, losing Williams for at least the first portion of the regular season will be a notable blow to new defensive coordinator Vance Joseph's scheme.

Broncos' K'Waun Williams: Suffers injury setback
K'Waun Williams is expected to undergo treatment and rehab for an ankle injury sustained last week, and his goal is to be healthy in time for Denver's regular-season opener versus the Raiders on Sept. 10, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.Williams has been sidelined since last week due to this injury, and he recently received a second medical opinion that pushed back his timeline for a return, per Klis. The 31-year-old nickelback played a fairly significant role when healthy for Denver last season, accumulating 44 tackles, seven passes defended and one interception over 14 games. While the exact nature of this ankle issue is unclear, it's likely that Williams and the team could air on the side of caution, as he's also seen as a candidate for an even bigger role in new defensive coordinator Vance Joseph's blitz-heavy scheme.

Broncos' K'Waun Williams: More blitzing opportunities ahead?
Andrew Mason of Denver Sports believes that K'Waun Williams could in for a big year under new defensive coordinator Vance Joseph.Williams posted 44 tackles, seven pass deflections, one interception and one sack in 14 games last season while starting in eight contests. Opposing quarterbacks posted a 69.3 rating while targeting Williams last year, which was a career best. He has 10 quarterback hits over the past four seasons, which Mason believes could translate into more opportunities in Joseph's blitz-friendly scheme. Williams provides meaningful depth to a Denver Broncos secondary headlined by corners Patrick Surtain and Damarri Mathis and safeties Kareem Jackson and Justin Simmons.
