Weaknesses:
As a pass rusher, Williams possesses a limited arsenal of moves, primarily relying on the swim and rip techniques. When his initial pass rush fails, he lacks the counter moves needed to consistently win.
Although he is proficient at disengaging from opposing offensive linemen using his hands, Williams needs to improve his ability to extend and create the separation necessary to consistently make plays. Part of this issue is attributed to his minimal arm length.
Regarding pad level, Williams often stands upright, which can diminish the effectiveness of his bull rush. While there has been some improvement, he continues to struggle with consistency in this aspect.
