In 2024, Williams led a wide receiver corps featuring several new faces after the position group's two starters, Chris Olave and Rashid Shaheed, were sidelined after midseason. Olave had 32 receptions for 400 yards with one touchdown in eight games. Shaheed caught 20 passes for 349 yards (17.5 avg.) with three touchdowns before suffering a season-ending knee injury in Week Six. Williams quickly integrated midseason acquisition Marquez Valdes-Scantling into the offense and the veteran responded, making 17 receptions for 385 yards (22.6 avg.), while leading the wideouts with four touchdowns, three from a distance of 28 yards or more.
Williams arrived in New Orleans after three years on the Baltimore Ravens coaching staff, where he served as assistant wide receivers coach in 2023 and as the team's pass game specialist from 2021-22, working with the wideouts.
In 2023, Williams worked with Ravens wide receivers Coach Greg Lewis to tutor a unit that contributed to Baltimore ranking fourth in the NFL in scoring (28.4 ppg.) and sixth in total offense (370.4 ypg.). Zay Flowers, the club's first round pick, set rookie franchise marks in catches (77) and receiving yards (858), adding six total touchdowns (five receiving and one rushing).
In 2022, Williams helped guide receiver Devin Duvernay to career-bests in receptions (37), receiving yards (407) and receiving touchdowns (3), while Demarcus Robinson also finished with a career-best 48 catches. In 2021, Williams contributed to scheming a passing attack that made the league's biggest improvement (+61.8 ypg.) from 2020 with Marquise Brown enjoying a breakout campaign with 91 receptions for 1,008 yards and six touchdowns.
Prior to his first professional experience as wide receivers coach of the AAF's San Antonio franchise in 2019, Williams mentored wide receivers for 18 years at the college level, including time with Nebraska (2015-17) and at Tulane (2012-14).
Mentoring the Cornhuskers' wide receivers under Coach Mike Riley, Nebraska's wideouts flourished under Williams' leadership upon arrival in 2015, with the group combining for more than 200 receptions, nearly 2,800 yards and 23 touchdowns. Nebraska ranked in the Top three in the Big Ten Conference in passing offense, scoring offense, total offense and third-down conversions.
During his tenure at Tulane under Curtis Johnson, Williams garnered impressive production out of the Green Wave's wideouts. In 2013, Tulane's wide receivers combined for 156 receptions, totaling 1,877 yards (12.0 avg.) and 18 touchdowns, as the team had its first winning record and bowl berth since 2002. In his first season in Uptown New Orleans in 2012, the Green Wave's receiving corps combined for 186 receptions, 2,656 receiving yards and 19 touchdown grabs. He mentored Ryan Grant, who was later selected by Washington in the fifth round of the 2014 NFL Draft, to a conference-high 1,149 receiving yards.
