Williams got to Oklahoma in 2010 and became a starter by the ’12 season. He started for current offensive line coach Bill Bedenbaugh during his first two years in 2013 and ’14. The Lake Dallas, Texas, product was drafted by the Carolina Panthers in the fourth round of the 2015 NFL Draft.
The former Sooner offensive lineman played both guard positions and at right tackle for the Panthers during his five years with the team. Williams will join Cody Ford in Buffalo, who is coming off a rookie season where he started in 15 of 16 games he played.
With the Panthers, he earned second-team All-Pro in 2017 and was a part of the 2015 team that went to the Super Bowl. During his time at Oklahoma, Williams was a part of the offensive line that helped Samaje Perine break the NCAA single-game rushing record with 427 yards.
