Tice Williams is a versatile, rising Texas State defender with special-teams grit
Tice Williams enters the 2026 season as a redshirt sophomore linebacker for Texas State after transitioning from safety, and that versatility is a real calling card. In 2025, he played in 9 games mostly on special teams, logging 5 tackles, a half tackle for loss, and a quarterback hurry, which hints at a high-motor, impact-first player who can help in multiple packages. He’s the kind of tough, adaptable depth piece coaches love: not a stat monster yet, but a physical, assignment-sound defender with room to grow into a bigger role.
