Ahead of the 2017 season, Williams was beat out for Utah’s starting job by current Baltimore Ravens quarterback Tyler Huntley.
Rather than transfer, Williams backed up Huntley and served as a team captain.
During his two seasons with Utah, Williams threw for 3,569 yards, 17 touchdowns, and 12 interceptions with a 53 percent completion rate.
After going undrafted in 2018, Williams played for Edmonton of the Canadian Football League from 2019-21.
