Williams, who is from Marrero, Louisiana, played at John Ehret High School.
He chose Alabama over his other two finalists, LSU and Texas A&M.
According to 247 Sports, Williams is the 6th best recruit of the 2021 recruit in Louisiana, and is also the 5th best safety nationally, and is also ranked 141st overall.
In two seasons, Williams racked up 123 tackles and 10 interceptions.
At 6-foot-2, and 205 pounds, this is a fantastic pick up for the Crimson Tide.
247Sports has this to say about Williams:
“Big-framed safety with good height and bulk relative to the position. Owns virtually college-ready size at safety and could grow into hybrid player or true off-line linebacker. Rangy at the back end and instinctive in coverage. Big production as a sophomore with six INT’s. Dipped slightly as a junior but still good production. Has consistently shown good ball skills, as evidenced by 10 INT’s in two seasons. Willing participant against the run with encouraging pursuit ability and closing speed. Generally delivers some pop upon arrival. Needs to improve consistency with tackling technique as he sometimes hunts for the big hit. Takes chances as a tackler. Athleticism lacks context. No verified 40 or track times. Owns free safety traits but frame could dictate a move closer to the line of scrimmage. May ideally be a scheme fit. Talented back seven prospect who projects to Power Five level possible long-term NFL Draft ceiling.”
