He was the missing piece, he is all the Georgia bulldogs needed to make things right.
Georgia signed Tyler Williams, and our 247Sports scouts analyze his skill set.
Georgia got its 16th commitment for the 2025 class on Wednesday when Seffner (Fla.) Armwood wide receiver Tyler Williams confirmed his choice to play for the Dawgs. The 6-foot-1, 205-pound recruit chose Georgia over Miami, Syracuse, UCF, and 31 other offers. Joining four-star Tayln Taylor and Thomas Blackshear as the third wide receiver committed in the 2025 cycle is Williams, an assistant to James Coley. Williams’s addition enables Georgia to overtake Notre Dame for the third-place ranking in the 247Sports Team Class Rankings. Williams is ranked as the No. 100 wide receiver and No. 73 overall recruit in Florida by 247Sports.
For Sumner, Williams had 26 receptions for 585 yards and 14 touchdowns. He also scored on defense with an interception, three punt return scores, and two kickoff return touchdowns. Williams caught 29 passes for 587 yards and eight touchdowns in his second season. As a sophomore, he averaged 6.2 points and 3.4 rebounds for the basketball team in addition to having a 6’1.5″ high jump. During his visit to Georgia earlier this month, Williams dissected film with the coaches, which shed light on his potential role in Athens.
“I would like to know how they plan to use me. They all assured me that I would be put to good use and would be adaptable. I could do a lot of different things,” he remarked. “I would play all-around, they assured me. I’d be willing to play all receiving positions. They compared me to George Pickens, who makes powerful catches and uses his athleticism to create plays down the field, rather than any current player.”
That’s an absurd expansion to the receiving area. A scouting report from 247Sports’ Andrew Ivins, which includes a player comparison of Javon Baker, provided Dawgs247 with additional information regarding Williams.
“A wide receiver with excellent body control and a thick cut that can be rather dangerous in catch-and-run scenarios. spent the most of his junior season receiving passes from a Power Four defensive back who was also a quarterback. Despite this, he averaged 22.5 yards per reception and found the end zone 14 times. had an impact on special teams as well, scoring five goals through the return game. Capable of working all route tree numbers, but has a talent for opening doors in the deeper third. He can make some impressive acrobatic grabs thanks to his remarkable hand-eye coordination, and his exceptional agility and natural core strength make it impossible for defenders to contain him in the open field. Though it’s not ideal, he can win a fair number of foot races and gain speed in pads. All things considered, he ought to be considered a multi-year starter at the Power Four level. Wide range of skills implies that he might align himself on the inside or outside. Given his physique (he was about 6-foot-1 and 205 pounds the summer of his senior year), he could be able to stake out a position early.”
