Bob Baum, from the Associated Press, reports Cardinals second-year RB Ryan Williams hopes to begin practicing next week. Williams is rehabbing from the knee injury that caused him to miss his entire rookie season in 2011.

Our View: Fantasy owners need to remember his name. Beanie Wells is recovering from offseason knee surgery and his timetable to return is unknown at this time. Williams will have the opportunity to show what he can do as a pro while Wells is out. He’s incredibly talented and could take over as the lead back for the Cardinals in 2012.
