ARLINGTON, Texas — Tailback Rawleigh Williams III has moved up Arkansas’ depth chart in a hurry.
Williams was the No. 4 tailback when preseason practice opened. Now the true freshman from Dallas Bishop Lynch High School finds himself No. 2 behind Alex Collins as the Razorbacks open SEC play tonight against Texas A&M at AT&T Stadium.
Williams’ status has changed because of injuries to Jonathan Williams and Kody Walker.
“I hate that for those guys, the way that it happened,” Williams said. “Those are my big brothers, and they worked their butts off to be ready for this season.
