BJ Williams brings veteran snap count, steady power, and Outland watch-list buzz to Pitt’s front five
BJ Williams is a senior Pitt interior lineman in the 2026 season with 32 career starts in 35 games, including 32 starts at right guard, and he earned a spot on the 2026 Outland Trophy Preseason Watch List. He has a rare blend of early starting experience, durability, and recognition for doing the dirty work that keeps an offense on schedule. The big selling point: he was the first true freshman to start on Pitt’s offensive line since 2013, which says plenty about his readiness and trust level. He looks like a plug-in, high-floor fit for a team that values toughness, consistency, and a reliable road-grader in the trenches.
