Alex Williams is Western Illinois’ red-zone weapon at tight end
In the 2025 season, Alex Williams became a real matchup problem for Western Illinois: at 6'4", 240, he paired 12 catches with 5 receiving touchdowns and was among the Leathernecks’ most efficient scoring threats. The big differentiator is his finish-rate, not just his volume — he’s a physical, high-leverage tight end who can turn limited touches into points, and he already has the size to win in traffic. That said, he’s still more of a specialized weapon than a high-volume chain-mover, so he fits best with a team that wants a red-zone target and a strong in-line presence.
