Report: Steelers' Williams has sprained ankle, could play vs. Bengals

Charles LeClaire / USA TODAY Sports

Pittsburgh Steelers running back DeAngelo Williams suffered a sprained ankle in Sunday's 28-12 victory over the Cleveland Browns, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports.

The injury may not be enough to keep him out of Saturday's AFC Wild Card game against the Cincinnati Bengals, though.

"(The injury) might be the kind of thing that would keep him out a couple games in the regular season, but as we know, this is not the regular season, so do not assume DeAngelo Williams will be out this week," Rapoport said Monday on "NFL HQ."

If Williams can't play, Fitzgerald Toussaint and Jordan Todman would both take on bigger roles.
