Thomas Williams is a fast-rising, high-motor Hokies corner with special-teams juice
In the 2025 season, Virginia Tech CB Thomas Williams played in all 12 games with 10 starts, posting 32 tackles, 6 pass breakups and a fumble recovery after an earlier 2024 redshirt year; he also showed juice as a returner in 2024 with 249 kickoff-return yards on 13 tries. He stands out for track-speed explosiveness, versatility, and a willingness to contribute in multiple phases, and Virginia Tech’s own preview described him as a special-teams pillar with “elite track speed.” That makes him a useful fit for a team needing a competitive, athletic boundary corner who can help on returns and grow into a bigger defensive role.
