Tar Heels in NFL: Javonte Williams has productive return; several getting extended looks

Posted Aug 20, 2023
Javonte Williams made his preseason debut for the Denver Broncos after his recovery from knee surgery. He had 12 yards on three carries and four catches for 18 yards, but just being back on the field was huge. Dazz Newsome, Myles Dorn, Kyler McMichael, and Andre Smith are getting longer looks than they perhaps would have gotten in other camps. (Tar Heel Tribune)
