emerging ball-hawking corner who surged in 2025
In the 2025 season, Carson Williams broke out at Montana State as a starting cornerback, finishing with 46 tackles, 2.5 tackles for loss, one forced fumble, and nine pass breakups while helping the Bobcats win the FCS national title. He’s a lean, competitive DB with real coverage production, and the big differentiator is his playmaking feel for the ball—he was also praised out of high school for 21 pass breakups and three interceptions. Why care? He looks like a fit for teams that value sticky coverage, toughness, and fast growth. Why he fits: ascending, disruptive, and not shy about contact.
