This is a GREAT article about Sam and his recovery from surgeries. It sounds like he has really done the right things and will be more than ready this summer. Very inspiring read. I especially enjoyed reading the "Bigger, Stronger, and Built for Impact" part.
'I want it to be a surpise': Cowboys' Williams speaks to 2.0 him, says 'Big Sam ready'

Sam Williams. Cowboys fans haven't forgotten the name, even if the draft cottage industry has lost track of his whereabouts over the years. Since being selected in 2022, mentions of Williams have ebbed and flowed for two seasons— whether about underutilization, inconsistency, or flashes of raw pass-rushing brilliance that teased an imminent breakout.
A brutal ACL and MCL tear in the build up to 2024's all-important Year 3 ended those convos. A season of "what could have been" turned into silence as he underwent season-ending surgery and landed on IR. Seven months post-injury though, the silence is breaking.
Questions about Sam Williams’ trajectory are back on the table. Will 2025 be the year he levels up, finds consistency, and becomes a real force in the Cowboys’ pass rush? The conversations are picking back up because Williams himself is inspiring the talk. “Big Sam ready.”
And he says it with a grin, one that suggests he knows something others don’t yet. He’s locked in on recovery, dialed in on his body, and focused on proving that when he gets his shot, he’s making it count.
