Kyle Williams Fantasy Football Outlook (2025)

By Andrew Erickson (FantasyPros), Wed, May 21st 2025, 12:03pm EDT

Kyle Williams enters the NFL as one of the most dynamic rookie wide receivers in the 2025 class. After a breakout 2024 season at Washington State (1,200+ yards, 14 TDs, 34% dominator rating), Williams showcased elite YAC skills (1st in class) and vertical playmaking (3rd in deep-ball catches, 58.3% success rate on 20+ yard throws). His tape backs it up - including burning Travis Hunter on one notable route - and his Tyler Lockett-style game makes him a strong fit with rookie QB Drake Maye in New England. With Stefon Diggs on a one-year prove-it deal and coming off a torn ACL, Williams has a legitimate shot to emerge as the Patriots' go-to target in Year 1.
