Williams' 2.36 expected points added per target led the league in the first week.

Williams' 2.36 EPA per target led the league in Week 1 despite 11 snaps.

Rookie WR had an impressive debut with four catches for 64 yards and a touchdown on just 11 passing snaps, earning NFL Rookie of the Week honors. His 2.36 expected points added per target led the league in Week 1, and he averaged 5.82 yards per route run (second among WRs with 10+ snaps). He was involved in all three Commanders touchdown drives: a 16-yard post route that set up a TD run, a 33-yard catch on third-and-14 that led to a TD pass, and a 14-yard crosser that started the final drive capped by his own 1-yard score. Pro Football Focus graded him 91.2 in Week 1.
