The Patriots drafted Williams in the third round of the 2025 NFL Draft, recognizing similarities in their playing styles.

I just kept watching [that highlight video] every day. And now look at us today. It's been a blessing. That's always been my favorite receiver.
He was just different. He was crafty. I mean, there was something about him that stuck out to me and I just gravitated towards it.
The four-time Pro Bowler Diggs has been known for his ability to beat man-to-man coverage throughout his career - a skill with Williams that helped lead to New England drafting him.
