Jacob Williams is the engine of Texas Southern’s defense
In the 2023 season, Jacob Williams earned All-SWAC Second Team honors, and in preseason 2024 he was named a First-Team All-SWAC linebacker and an HBCU All-America watch-list player, which tells you he’s viewed as a proven, high-end defender rather than a stats-only guy. He’s a 6-foot-1, 210-pound senior/graduate linebacker from Fresno, Texas, known for leadership, intensity, and playmaking—his past production included triple-digit tackle potential and impact behind the line. If your team wants a tough, instinctive tone-setter who can carry a defense, he’s absolutely the kind of linebacker you care about.
