The brunt of the offseason is in the books and training camp is underway. Join us for a player-by-player review of the Jaguars roster ahead of the 2023 season.
When the Denver Broncos drafted Seth Williams near the end of the 2021 NFL draft, they made it clear that special teams were in the young receiver’s future.
“We targeted him as one of the top special-teams players for receivers,” Broncos general manager George Paton told reporters at the time. “… Special teams was a big part of our third day, and he was one of the top special-teamers as a receiver.”
That didn’t really come to fruition in Denver, though. Williams played 49 offensive snaps and 14 special teams snaps as a rookie, then was cut by the Broncos at the end of his second preseason with the team. After getting scooped up by the Jacksonville Jaguars, Williams spent his second NFL season on the practice squad.
Entering year three, Williams is looking for a more permanent spot on an active roster. Showing off some special teams prowess would be a good way to make it happen.
Contract (2023): $750,000 base salary, $750,000 cap hit.
Acquired: The Jaguars signed Williams to their practice squad on Sept 2, 2022.

Quote: “I can overpower my defenders that are guarding me. I’m able to make the big play, and I don’t shy away from the big moment at all. I’m ready for it all.” – Williams
