He had four stops in the Eagles' opener at West Georgia.  His best game of pass defense came against UVA Wise (Nov. 5) when he broke up five passes. 

2021: Appeared in the first three games of the season before he was sidelined with an injury.  Williams had 16 tackles, including nine against UVA Wise (9/25) before he got hurt. He also picked off a pass against the Cavaliers.

HIGH SCHOOL: A two-sport athlete in football and track, Williams recorded four interceptions with 22 pass break ups throughout his career. He added onto his stat sheet with a pair of forced fumbles, a pick six and a fumble recovery for a score. He took down 48 solo tackles with two tackles for loss. The All-Conference and All-Northwest selection led the Titans in interceptions.
