2025 Projections
Splits time again this season
Williams played on 393 defensive snaps and on 220 special-teams snaps during the 2024 regular season, recording 33 tackles (19 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and six pass breakups.
ANALYSIS
The 2022 fourth-round pick's snap counts were similar the last two years: 312 on defense and 303 on special teams in 2023 and 414 on defense and 215 on special teams in 2022. Williams was believed to have a chance at starting opposite Trent McDuffie going into the 2024 campaign, but Jaylen Watson ended up taking over that role. Williams is entering the final year of his rookie contract in 2025.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Williams has a big opportunity to claim a starting role at cornerback in 2024 with L'Jarius Sneed moving off to Tennessee. Williams was a rotational player for most of his first two NFL campaigns, so he's not a lock to win the battle to start, with Jaylen Watson and Nazeeh Johnson serving as his main competition. If Williams is able to emerge on top, he could be worth keeping an eye on in IDP fantasy leagues.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Next man up after Sneed trade
Williams, a 2022 fourth-round pick, is expected to serve as the Chiefs' starting left cornerback in 2024 following the trade of L'Jarius Sneed to the Titans on Friday.
ANALYSIS
Turron Davenport and Adam Schefter of ESPN reported Friday that the long-expected trade of Sneed was finalized and the veteran cornerback would be signing a new contract with Tennessee. For the time being, Sneed's departure from the back-to-back defending champions tees up Williams to step into a starting role after recording 58 tackles, one interception and 11 additional defensed passes over 33 games across his first two seasons.
