Kyle Williams brings big-play juice and separator traits to Illinois State’s receiving room
Kyle Williams is the kind of receiver who changes a game with one touch: in the 2025 season, he posted 10 catches for 209 yards and 3 touchdowns for New England, with a 20.9 yards-per-catch average that reflects real downfield burst and run-after-catch ability.[7][8] His differentiators are speed, explosive play strength, and a willingness to work through smaller-frame disadvantages; scouting and usage notes consistently point to him winning on deep routes, screens, and as a versatile return-type threat rather than just a possession target.[10][14][18]
