It is bittersweet for Williams, who saw the business side of football when he had to say good-bye to his good friend and mentor. “It’s kind of new,” Williams said during Baylor’s Pro Day on Wednesday. “I really don’t how I feel. It’s like my first time seeing stuff like this. In college, it’s completely different.
“He’s a good dude, and I wish the best for him. I thank him for the stuff he taught me. I felt like without him and Dez [Bryant], the first game, it probably could’ve gone downhill from there. Those two guys kept me in it. They taught me about their mistakes and overall different ways I can do stuff. …It’s kind of weird. You get so close to a guy and then, a year later, they’re not there. I really don’t know what to expect.”
“I have to continue on doing my job and showing them why they brought me here,” Williams said, “and it’s just going to be a step that I’m going to have to just suck up and do my job the way they brought me here to do. …Seeing [Austin] leave, it’s sad, but we still have to do our job to the best of our abilities.”
Williams and Tennessee Titans receiver Kendall Wright share a place in Waco, working out together under the direction of Baylor strength and conditioning coach Kaz Kazadi."I’m just here just trying to get faster, trying to just be a better player," Williams said. "Last year I started off slow and then started picking it up. Now, I’ve obviously got a year. I’m just trying to come in and start off where I left off and continue to keep building it up."
