Caleb's Close-Up: Volume VI, Man Versus Zone
Briefly

In 2024, Williams significantly struggled against man coverage, resulting in lower completion percentages and yards per attempt than the NFL average. His challenges are linked to downfield accuracy issues, particularly with deeper passes, leading to a lower touchdown rate as well. Conversely, Williams performed relatively better against zone coverage, achieving near NFL average completion percentages. This analysis showcases the disparities in his performance depending on the type of defensive coverage faced, indicating potential areas for development as he continues his career.
