Williams is listed as a starter for Colorado ahead of its opener at Georgia Tech on Thursday night, per Scott Procter of DNVR Sports.
Impact
Williams is coming off a 37-catch, 489-yard, four touchdown campaign for Colorado in 2025. Once again, he'll man a starting role and get a chance to put up big numbers on the perimeter.

Practicing, ready to roll
Williams (leg) is practicing and is ready to roll for the new season.
Impact
Williams missed the Buffs' final game of the 2025 season and was nursing a leg injury in spring ball, but he was spotted in practice in training camp before the new season. Williams posted 37 catches for 489 yards and four touchdowns last season, and he figures to play a big role in 2026 as well.

Nursing leg injury
Williams is nursing a leg injury through spring ball, per Buffaloes Wire.
Impact
Williams missed Colorado's final game of the season, and the wideout is still nursing a leg ailment as Colorado goes through its spring practice period. He posted 37 catches for 489 yards and four touchdowns last season, and should remain a big factor in this offense once he manages to get back on the field.

Out for Week 14
Williams (undisclosed) is out for Saturday's game at Kansas State, Adam Munsterteiger of 247Sports reports.
Impact
Even though the Big 12 availability report does not include Williams, he is not suited up for Saturday's game, suggesting his injury status will be out at Kansas State. Colorado's team is not eligible for a bowl game, so his sophomore season comes to an end. Williams logged 37 receptions (on 58 targets) for 489 yards and four touchdowns.

Upgraded to probable
Williams (undisclosed) is probable for Saturday's game against Kansas State.
Impact
Williams has been bumped up from questionable to probable, which bodes well for his availability Saturday. The sophomore has caught 37 of 58 targets for 489 yards and four touchdowns this season.

Questionable against K-State
Williams (undisclosed) has been listed as questionable ahead of Saturday's game against Kansas State.
Impact
Williams has popped up on the Buffaloes' injury report due to undisclosed reasons as Colorado faces off against K-State to close out the 2025 regular season. The 6-foot-2 sophomore transfer from Tulsa has logged 37 receptions for 489 yards and four touchdowns across 10 games this season.

Scores in Saturday's win
Williams reeled in 3 of 6 targets for 64 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 29-22 loss versus West Virginia.
Impact
Williams caught his fourth touchdown of the season Saturday, a nine-yard touchdown late in the first half. He also gained over 60 yards for just the second time this season. Williams showed a promising connection with new quarterback Julian Lewis and he will look to continue that over the remaining two games.

Officially cleared
Williams (undisclosed) is off the report for Saturday's game against West Virginia.
Impact
Williams is ready to roll after a brief appearance on Wednesday's injury report. He was limited to just three catches for 16 yards last week and will look to get more involved following his 128 yards performance in Week 7.

ROTOWIRE
Likely to play in Week 11
Williams (undisclosed) is probable for Saturday's game against West Virginia.
Impact
Williams was limited to just three catches in the Week 10 matchup against Arizona after not playing in the loss to Utah in Week 9. He's being listed as probable due to unknown reasons, but the tag suggests the wideout should be available against WVU this weekend. Williams has 27 catches for 386 yards and three scores in 2025.

Held out for tardiness
Williams (not injury related) did not play during Colorado's 53-7 loss to Utah on Saturday due to tardiness, per Brian Howell of The Daily Camera.
Impact
Williams was among those disciplined for tardiness while returning to team events following Colorado's bye last week as the 6-foot-2 receiver was held out against the Utes. Williams was coming off his best performance of the season against Iowa State prior to the team's bye, catching eight passes for 128 yards and a touchdown. Assuming his punishment has been fulfilled, he will hope to return to that form when the Buffs host Arizona on Saturday.

Excellent in Saturday's win
Williams caught all eight targets for 128 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 24-17 win against Iowa State.
Impact
Williams put together his best performance of the season Saturday as he set season highs in receptions (eight), targets (eight) and yards (128). He also caught his third touchdown of the season, a three-yard score in the third quarter. He has been solid up to this point in the season, but this was his true breakout performance. After a bye he will look to keep the momentum goin at Utah on Oct. 25.

Scores in Saturday's win
Williams reeled in their only target for 47 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 37-20 win against Wyoming.
Impact
Williams caught a 47-yard touchdown in the third quarter of Saturday's game, his second straight game with a touchdown. However, that was his only target in the entire game which is somewhat concerning. If he can't get a higher target share with quarterback Kaidon Salter, then he can't be relied on in fantasy.

Reels in touchdown Friday
Williams reeled in 3 of 4 targets for 52 yards and one touchdown during Friday's 36-20 defeat to Houston.
Impact
Williams caught a 37-yard touchdown from Ryan Staub in the fourth quarter Friday, his first touchdown of the season. He now has seven catches (on 12 targets) for 107 yards and a touchdown over the last two games, a promising little stretch despite the shaky quarterback play. It's too early to tell if he can be fully relied on, but he has a good chance to put together another solid performance Saturday versus Wyoming.

Not listed as starter
Williams is not listed as a starter for Saturday's game against Delaware, Scott Procter of DNVR Sports reports.
Impact
Instead of Williams, it is Sincere Brown part of Colorado's listed starters at wide receiver. The former did not impress all that much in Week 1, having logged only one reception (on two targets) for 10 yards. At the very least, there is still much time for Williams' 2025 season to turn itself around.

Stood out in spring game
Williams stood out in Colorado's spring game, Harrison Simeon of Sports Illustrated reports.
Impact
Williams is making some noise before the 2025 season as the Buffs just kicked off their spring game. The 6-foot-2 wide receiver played with Tulsa in the 2024 season where he recorded 30 passes for 588 yards and five touchdowns. He's primed to possibly be one of Colorado's top pass catchers this campaign.
