E.J. Williams has plenty of room to grow in the weight room and has a lot to learn as a true freshman for Clemson. But overall, the 6-foot-4, 190-pound wide receiver had an excellent first spring with the Tigers and turned heads while showing off his talent throughout their nine spring practices.
“E.J., seems like every day he makes a play,” head coach Dabo Swinney said following the team’s scrimmage on March 11, which turned out to be its final practice of the spring. “He just flashes about every day.”
Williams, a four-star recruit and consensus top-125 national prospect coming out of high school, looked like a carbon copy of Clemson junior wideout Justyn Ross according to offensive coordinator Tony Elliott.
