"Antonio Williams was projected as a first-round pick before his final season at Clemson. The wideout dealt with some nagging injuries that held him back, though he was productive in difficult circumstances."
"DeAndre Hopkins expects big things from Antonio Williams with the Commanders. When asked about which receiver from this draft class may have star potential, he picked Washington's new dynamic playmaker."
"Williams should help. He's a slick route-runner who can create separation effortlessly. His ball skills are first-class, and the wideout can also gain yards after the catch."
Antonio Williams was drafted 71st overall by the Washington Commanders in the 2026 NFL Draft, viewed as a valuable addition for quarterback Jayden Daniels. Despite injuries affecting his final season at Clemson, he was previously projected as a first-round pick. DeAndre Hopkins praised Williams' potential, and Clemson's coach Dabo Swinney believes he can make an immediate impact. The Commanders are optimistic about his ability to enhance their receiving corps, which lacks depth beyond Terry McLaurin.
