Williams was projected to be one of the top left tackles in the 2018 NFL Draft prior to his junior season, but a knee injury has sidelined him for the Longhorns’ past seven games. Texas head coach Tom Herman said the All-American left tackle could potentially return this week against West Virginia.

Williams’ knee injury has caused him to slide down some draft analysts’ big boards, but Kiper still has him as the 16th best prospect in this year’s draft class. The 6-foot-6, 315-pound left tackle could immediately fill a void for the G-Men at left tackle, and will surely be one to watch should he elect to enter the 2018 draft.
