Ryan Williams is gaining respect from former Alabama players as one of the best 10 wide receivers in Crimson Tide history, despite only having played in four games as a true freshman.
In every match, he has taken some action to draw attention. During Alabama’s game against Georgia last week at Saban Field in Bryant-Denny Stadium, the 17-year-old was outstanding. With six catches for a touchdown and a career-high 177 receiving yards, he rendered the Bulldogs’ secondary defenseless.
In Alabama’s thrilling triumph, Williams was responsible for two incredible plays. One of them was a 75-yard reception that forced two defenders to collide, giving me the opportunity to stiff-arm one of them and sprint downfield for a touchdown.
With a 41-34 advantage, he pushed the Tide back ahead, and it ended up being the final score.

Williams has 16 catches for 462 yards and five touchdowns. He is out to a quicker start in production through four games than DeVonta Smith did during his 2020 Heisman Memorial Trophy season, averaging 115.5 yards per game. Through his first four games of 2020, Smith had 38 receptions for 483 yards and four touchdowns.
Although Williams is exerting more effort than Smith did in every aspect, the former Alabama star already believes that Alabama has to reassemble its all-time top 10 wide receivers.
Marquis Maze, a two-time BCS National Champion in 2009 and 2011, stated the ‘new deuce is quite loose.’
Williams, in his opinion, is currently among the top five to ten wide receivers.
