The Houston native nearly doubled his career numbers with a monster junior season. After rushing for a combined 1,855 in his freshman and sophomore seasons, Williams rushed for 1,760 yards, a single-season Texas A&M record, in 2018. He also recorded 18 rushing touchdowns as a junior, bringing his career total to 34. Williams goes out with a bang. In Texas A&M’s Gator Bowl win over NC State, Williams carried the ball 19 times for 236 yards and three touchdowns.
Can’t say I’m disappointed to see him go. I wish him all the best at the next level though.
T-Will is a good young man from a good family. I wish him the best on his pro career.
Trayveon says “If it weren’t for football I wouldn’t be playing football today.”
A visionary….lol.
Funny how you never know how things will work out. I remember thinking he was a “second choice” when we flipped him from TCU after Devwah Whaley spurned us for Arkansas. What a great young man. I would love to see him making some good money in Jacksonville. Looks like Fournette and Yeldon will be moving on.
