Seems like he's the only guy who can get the tough yards. I don't see anyone on the RB roster like that, but hopefully the new Oline can provide assistance.

He’s fun to watch. A true dawg that steps up in the tough spots. An easy guy to like and watch.

Williams does nothing better than Durham besides maybe pass block

Its really hard not to like Josh Williams.

I usually agree, but he's stronger and sheds tacklers a bit better IMO.

Williams stepped up when we needed it. His play will always be appreciated.

While true, you need more than one of those.

Jackson can be that guy. We'll be fine at that position

We will miss the “commitment to school and the always trying to improve yourself to your sport”. He sets a great example in lockeroom.
I still remember the 3rd down run he made late in game against bama. That run showed how dedicated he is to his teammates and to winning. Great young man

Durham got put on his arse a bunch in pass pro - Josh has as well, but Josh also has better technique for sure.

What I liked about Josh is that it didn't matter if he was going to get the ball or not, he was going to give it his all. How many times have we seen over the years, one of our WR's, or JD5 running and then out of nowhere, Josh Williams puts somebody on their arse.

Do you remember the play against 2023 Florida where it was like pop pass to BT11 and Josh Williams absolutely rocked the Florida's DE. I mean straight put him on his arse and JD5 was standing over the guy talking shite with Josh

Highly disagree. He hasn't seen the field since early season and got zero "push" in short-yardage situations. I'll be very surprised if he doesn't xfer. Looks Tarzan play Jane.

no one got push or short yardage. He was also third string. Also wouldn't be shocked if transfers with Durham and berry on roster.

Durham is easily the more talented back.

Reminds me a lot of Jacob Hester - one of my all-time favorite Tigers.

Feels like Josh Williams will get on with the chiefs as a UDFA and end up having a nice little 3-7 year career ala Ware, Darrell Williams etc

Nah. Already passed up by Durham in the rotation. Hate to say it, but Jackson ain't it. Agree we need a short-yardage bruiser on the roster.

he ran up the arse of an OLineman again last night and bounced backwards
