He was questionable in week 6, shoulder injury. Obviously it didnt affect him too much.

I heard on Sirius not sure who it was either Pat Kirwan or Tim Ryan on Friday. That Williams foot injury is worse then reported supposedly 3-4 month recovery his words were he has a BAD foot. He will continue to play but won't be 100% the rest of the year no link or anything but take it for what it is worth.
If I would have said good ENOUGH to go would you have been happy? From another article...
"A healthy dose of the gameplan, at least until his injury, was Williams. The Bucs have become one of the most run-heavy teams in the league, averaging 138.5 yards per game, fifth-best in the league. Michael Pittman had his first 100-yard game of the season last Sunday in place of Williams.
Gruden hopes Williams can resume full-speed practice next Wednesday when the Bucs begin preparing for their Oct. 30 road trip to San Francisco. He also expects to get Phillips back for that game. Jackson, however, could be out for a few weeks, which would keep second-year safety Will Allen in the starting lineup."

Back on topic after the pissing match:
GOOD news here:

Key quote:
"Simms has the support of the NFL's top-ranked defense and a two-pronged running game. Michael Pittman filled in nicely last week for rookie Cadillac Williams, who will return against the 49ers after hamstring and foot ailments."
I don't know how much a Philidelphia outlet can know, but we'll see.

from thehuddle.comCarnell Williams - RB, Tampa Bay Buccaneers 10/25/05Doctors familiar with treating athlete's with foot injuries say that if Bucs running back Cadillac Williams has a Lisfranc injury, the average recovery time is 10-12 weeks, the St. Petersburg Times reports. Complicating matters is that Williams is flat-footed, and people with that condition can aggravate the foot with overuse. "My speculation is that he'll be real good at the beginning of the game, and they might even numb the skin around it with a little anesthetic just to take the edge off," one of the doctors said. "But as the game wears on, that's when he will start to really feel it."All indications are that Williams will take a shot at playing against the 49ers this week. But since Tampa is playing such a weak opponent, they could more than likely win without risking him. Watch closely to see whether or not Williams practices this week.

A Lisfranc injury is actually a fracture of a foot bone that leads to displacement of other foot bones. If this is really his injury, he is going to be out for awhile (depending on severity of course). This has to heal properly or there could be long term damage.I wonder if this is really his injury.

This from KFFLBuccaneers | Williams' Injury Requires Rest, PatienceTue, 25 Oct 2005 15:21:39 -0700Stephen F. Holder, of the St. Petersburg Times, reports Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB Carnell Williams (foot) will need plenty of rest to completely recover from his foot injury. "The problem with the arch is the stress that goes through there is very high," said Dr. Ned Amendola, director of sports medicine at the University of Iowa. "And for a guy who is a superior athlete, the stresses are significantly increased. That means it takes more time to heal. You really have to be 100 percent because you're going to put so much of a load on it." Williams has said he has strained the tendons in the mid-foot area. "It's really an uncertain dilemma, and MRIs can't always tell you how bad it is," Amendola said. "You have to really put it all together and really listen to the athlete." The Buccaneers had a Bye in Week 7 and Williams has previously stated he expects to play in Week 8. This at least sounds better than the fracture talk.
