Alabama Makes Major Ryan Williams Announcement on Tuesday<\/a> originally appeared on Athlon Sports<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Despite being one of the youngest players across all of college football this past season at just 17 years old, Alabama wide receiver Ryan Williams was a star for the Crimson Tide.<\/p>\n

The former five-star recruit who reclassified from the 2025 recruiting class to the 2024 was one of the few bright spots in what was Alabama’s worst season since 2007.<\/p>\n

He finished the year with 48 catches for 865 yards and eight receiving touchdowns while also adding two scores on the ground. His stellar showing earned him\u00a0Freshman All-American honors, and he was also named First-Team All-SEC.<\/p>\n

With the college football season about 60 days away from kicking off, preseason honors are starting to be dished out, and Williams has been on the receiving end.<\/p>\n

As shared to social media by the program, Williams was one of three players named to the Walter Camp Preseason All-America team<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Joining him in receiving this honor were left tackle Kadyn Proctor, who also received a first-team nod, and\u00a0defensive lineman\u00a0Tim Keenan III,\u00a0a second-team selection.<\/p>\n

Although there are quite a few preseason All-America honors that have yet to be named, Walter Camp claims to be the “nation’s oldest college football All-America team.”<\/p>\n

In this year’s edition, it was revealed in a release by Walter Camp that 34 different programs were represented throughout the first and second teams. The SEC continues to show its dominance, with the most schools represented, 12.<\/p>\n

The release also revealed that Alabama was\u00a0one of five schools with three players named to a preseason All-America team.<\/p>\n

With Alabama expected to have a better passing quarterback in either Ty Simpson or Keelon Russell, Williams could be due for an even bigger sophomore season.<\/p>\n
