Star receiver Ryan Williams was back in action on Saturday as the Alabama Crimson Tide defeated the Wisconsin Badgers 38-14 at Bryant-Denny Stadium. Williams missed Week 2 action after being placed in concussion protocol following a hit in the season opener at Florida State.

The sophomore had a great game with five receptions for 165 yards and two touchdowns. A special highlight from the game for Williams was his second touchdown reception in the third quarter. Williams made the catch while displacing the Wisconsin defender on him with brilliant footwork before running to the Badgers’ endzone.

Ryan Williams on being back from injury

Ryan Williams recounted his feelings on being back in action in a media chat following the game. He said:

“It’s a blessing to be back. Just being out there with the guys, I wouldn’t trade it for anything else.”

His experience, sitting out when his friends and teammates get to play, has also bestowed on him new insights. He said:

“I learned a lot. Just being able to observe the defense and not be in the heat of the moment and being able to watch the film before my guys come off the field and tell them, ‘Hey, make sure you look this for.’ Just being able to be that extra oft voice and not have the coach getting on you all day long.”

While Kayode believes there is little to separate college and mainstream sports, pro leagues absorbing the best athletes leads to their quality being higher. Witnessing the Colorado Buffaloes’ hot streak at start the 2023 football season was one of his all-time favorite college sports moments.
