Here's a breakdown of Williams heading into next season.

Depth Chart Overview
Williams didn't see any playing time in 2024 but may earn his first snaps in 2025, likely coming in garbage time. With Dani Dennis-Sutton, Zuriah Fisher, Max Granville and Jaylen Harvey projected to lock down spots in the two-deep, Williams will likely battle for a role as a third-stringer in the fall.
