Nebraska to host Illinois defensive line recruit

Jaylen Williams will visit the Lincoln campus on June 21.

A four-star defensive lineman is planning an official visit to Nebraska. Jaylen Williams will visit the Lincoln campus on June 21.

Williams has announced his final four schools: Texas A&M, Tennessee, Michigan, and Nebraska. He will visit the Volunteers this weekend.

247Sports national recruiting analyst Allen Trieu believes that Williams has the potential to play as a Power Four starter.

Gets off the ball with quickness and makes a good number of negative plays in the backfield. Runs by his high school competition quite a bit or wins quickly with his size and strength.

Most recruiting services have the defensive lineman leaning toward the Wolverines. Nebraska’s class of 2025 currently holds ten commitments and is ranked just outside the Top 25.
