I think both have been injured awhile.  IIRC, Williams missed a lot of OTAs?

Here's a recent Rotoworld piece:

Panthers TE Brandon Williams (groin surgery) will be limited when training camp opens next week.
Williams underwent a minor procedure in June and is expected back for the second week of camp. It's a note for preseason DFS players to file away. Williams, a former college basketball player and athletic freak, logged a heavy 58 snaps in last year's exhibition opener and produced 3-50-1. Be sure he's healthy before using him this year. Jul 23 - 10:45 AM

 And from July 23: this on both Williams & Presley

Rivera said two injured players will not be ready when the Panthers begin camp – backup tight end Brandon Williams (groin) and reserve wideout De’Andre Presley (shin splints).

Angelo Wright, Williams’ agent, said Williams underwent minor surgery in June and should be ready by the end of the second week of camp.

Rivera said Presley’s injury is similar to the stress fracture in his left leg that caused him to begin last season on the physically unable to perform list.

Presley missed the first nine games while on the PUP list. He returned to play in four games before ending the season on injured reserve after sustaining a concussion against Cleveland.

If the final WR/TE spot came down to Williams, Bersin and Cotchery, who would you pick? 

Tough not to go for the Crotch every time. Most yards. Higher catch %, Way more plays over 20 yards. 

Plus all the fair catches. Jeeeez.

Swole would be my #2 simply because of the position, But he's not #1 because eventually they are going to pee test him.

Brandon Williams has so much potential, but he hardly ever get any playing time.  Maybe he's not the greatest practice player, but by now I just want to see him on the field.  What's the point of having him on the team any more if he never sees the field?

      Ticket Prices

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      Fees nowadays are ridiculous. After purchasing concert tickets for my son’s 18th birthday and paying the rest of our HHI trip with 3 other families, I’m shocked at how much they are. Honestly, it’s grand theft. Some is taxes but in a world where everything is electronic, fees should be cheaper. Electrons don’t cost 10-30% of the event.

      JJ Jansen on tanking

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      Nope, that’s not the disconnect. In 2022, our GM knew he was going QB in the 2023 draft. You are talking about risking fans involvement on a team that’s been basically bottom 3 in the NFL from 2018 to now. There is no risk when you are that bad. We were right to want Fitterer to tank in 2022 and get rid of anyone who could bring us big value and extra cap room for future years when we aren’t winning 2-7 wins a year. We knew we wanted a rookie QB so we didn’t trade assets for picks and get a better draft slot so we ended up only getting a 2nd for Burns and threw in DJ Moore plus an early 2nd instead of a 1st, which basically lost us an early 2nd. The “risk” to our franchise’s losing culture ended up being around 4 1sts of total value. Yep, I refuse to listen to the other perspective that lost us around 4 1sts of value. At least our fan involvement is so high that our stadium isn’t chock full of visiting fans since we’ve won so much since 2022. Again, you won’t change my mind that we should have tanked in 2022 and had another 2-4 Browns/Horns on this team.
