  Draft Scout by Conference









  Listed at 5-foot-10 and 170 pounds as a junior at KU, Williams rushed for more than 1,000 yards in each of his first two seasons, emerging as an electric offensive player for the long struggling program. KU's offense floundered, though, this year, and Williams' effectiveness declined. After rushing for just 21 yards on 11 carries in KU's loss at West Virginia, Williams announced he was opting out of the season. In four games as a junior, Williams averaged only 3.8 yards per carry - he averaged 7.0 yards as a freshman and 5.2 as a sophomore.

Williams ran for 196 yards (65.3 yards per game) and scored two rushing touchdowns in 2020. Earlier in his career, he totaled 1,125 rushing yards (102.3 per game) as a freshman and 1,061 as a sophomore (96.5 per game). Williams revealed his opt out plans on Oct. 19, hours after being named the Big 12's Special Teams Player of the Week, an honor he picked up by returning a kickoff 92 yards for a touchdown on what proved to be the final play of his KU career. In a statement released at the time of his opt out, Williams said part of his plan involved moving back to Louisiana to be closer to his mother, who was dealing with health issues. - Lawrence Journal World
