Broncos' Sean Payton plans to play Javonte Williams on Saturday

Denver Broncos coach Sean Payton said Tuesday he plans to play running back Javonte Williams in Saturday's preseason game against the 49ers in what will be the running back's first time playing since tearing his ACL and LCL in Week 4 of last season.

"He's doing well, we'll have a plan. I plan on playing him, we'll see pitch count wise towards the end of the week. We'll be smart, but I do see him getting to play some," Payton said.

Williams did not start training camp on the physically unable to perform list.
