compact Rutgers RB whose burst and balance made him a tough first-level tackle
In his Rutgers years, De'Antwan Williams flashed efficient early-career production with 235 rushing yards and a touchdown in the 2009 season, then 111 yards in the 2010 season before injuries interrupted his trajectory[1]. At 5'7"-5'8" and around 195 pounds, he was a low-center-of-gravity runner with quick feet, enough pop to break tackles, and the kind of compact build that fits a north-south rushing role[1][11]. The big question is durability: his college path was shaped by an injury in 2011, which makes him more of a “when healthy, sneaky-effective” profile than a volume-workhorse bet[7].
