Big Cat Country on C.J. Williams

Williams earns QB trust with perfect 4-for-4 catch rate and standout practice film despite modest stats.

Williams may have had the less statistically flashy night of the two rookie receivers with four catches for 22 yards, but his film from the week tells a fuller story; in Wednesday's joint practice, he made one of the catches of the day on a Mullens throw into an impossibly tight window; in the game, he and Cameron operated as the clear first options for both Mullens and Carter Bradley throughout the first half, with his efficiency in that volume of early work—four targets and four catches—reflecting a growing level of trust from the backup quarterback room that he had not yet fully established early on.
