Williamson was formerly a first-round draft pick by the Minnesota Vikings and was traded to the Jaguars after spending 3 three seasons in Minnesota. If not being signed back by the Jaguars, he would have become a restricted free agent on Friday.
Earning the starting job last year, Williamson however did not keep that job for long and lost it to Holt after sustaining a season-ending shoulder injury in Week 2. Having 87 receptions for 1,131 yards and four touchdowns in his five-year career, Williamson will be given a chance to compete for the starting job again with Mike Walker.
