Alabama Crimson Tide wide receiver Ryan Williams stunned the college football world in 2024, cementing himself as one of the biggest stars in the sport. Williams helped the Crimson Tide finish its first season under head coach Kalen DeBoer with a 9-4 record and a 5-3 mark in SEC play.

As a true freshman, Williams was the Tide’s clear No. 1 receiver with 48 receptions for 865 yards and 8 TDs while also carrying the ball four times for 48 yards and 2 scores. Williams burst onto the national scene with his game winning touchdown against Georgia and is already widely regarded as a future top ten NFL draft pick.

In his first 13 games at Alabama, Williams showed off his five-star billing by exploding for 865 receiving yards, eight receiving touchdowns, and 48 catches. It took Williams no time to show that he was going to be a star when he scored two touchdowns in the Crimson Tide's opening game against Western Kentucky.

Alabama's true freshman star at wide receiver earned one more honor for his first season, being named an All-American by the FWAA.
