From the article

rookie WR Antonio Williams was taken in the 3rd round of this year's draft. He's a great route runner and seems to already understand a lot of the nuance of the WR position. As a result, he's been getting more and more time on the field and it's clear the staff trust him. Williams caught 4-of-4 targets for 64 yards and a TD in week 1. He only caught 3-of-3 passes for 24 yards in week 2, but his route share jumped from 28.9% to 54.8% and they even designed a trick play for him in week 2
