Productive in OT win Williams hauled in 5 of 6 targets for 89 yards during Saturday's 27-24 overtime win versus Kansas State.

Impact Williams only had six targets Saturday, by far his fewest since Week 2, yet he still managed a good performance with 89 yards. Williams has maintained production with quarterback Isaac Wilson in recent weeks, though he has now gone three straight games without a touchdown which is hurting his ceiling. He'll hope to get back into the endzone Saturday at Arizona State.

Season high in yards Saturday Williams gathered in 9 of 10 targets for 135 yards during Saturday's 57-24 defeat against Oklahoma State.

Impact Williams set a new season high with 135 yards in Saturday's loss, his third time this season with over 120 yards. He had 10 targets in his fifth straight game, a consistent target share that very few receivers in the country come close to. With the team needing to throw the ball early and often, there's no reason to believe Williams will slow down any time soon.

Slows down Saturday Williams had five receptions (on 11 targets) for 54 yards during Saturday's 27-24 loss versus Utah.

Impact Williams had double-digit targets in his fourth straight game Saturday, though he had just 54 yards, his lowest total since Week 1. It was not a bad performance by any means and his scorching pace did need to slow down at some point. He still remains a great option for Saturday's game at Oklahoma State.

Excellent in loss Williams had 10 receptions (on 17 targets) for 93 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 29-7 defeat versus Texas Tech.

Impact Williams was one of the only bright spots in Saturday's loss, catching a touchdown in his fourth consecutive game for the Buffaloes. He was targeted 17 times by new starter Isaac Wilson, bringing him up to 35 targets across the last two games alone. He has established himself as the focal point of the offense, and with Colorado expected to be trailing in most remaining games, he should continue to see a very large target share.
