Another day, another wide receiver commitment for Alabama.
Owen Cabell became the first wide receiver in UA’s 2026 recruiting class on Monday. About 24 hours later, Brian Williams joined the fold to give the Crimson Tide 2 wideouts in the class.
From Orlando, Florida, Williams is out of The First Academy. He is listed as measuring 6-4, 195 pounds and rated 3-stars, the No. 104 player in the state of Florida, No. 118 wide receiver and No. 799 prospect overall in the Class of 2026 on the 247Sports Composite.
As one of the top wide receivers in the heavily recruited Sunshine State, Williams picked up an impressive 33 scholarship offers. Arkansas, Florida State, Auburn, Michigan, Georgia, Notre Dame and Kentucky were among the programs to show interest.
Williams took visits to Alabama, Penn State and Florida in recent weeks, electing to play for Kalen DeBoer‘s program.
With Williams on board, Alabama is up to 16 verbal commitments for its 2026 recruiting class, which ranks No. 7 nationally on the Composite. Williams shows what he brings to Tuscaloosa next year in the Hudl highlight reel of his junior season, which can be viewed below:
