Derek Williams Jr. is a 6’2 185 pound safety from New Iberia, LA.
The Class of 2023 prospect attends Westgate High School and has a 90 rating (4-star) from 247 Sports. That recruiting service considers him the 62nd best player in his class (4th best safety and 2nd best player in Louisiana).
Williams Jr. has offers from the Arkansas Razorbacks, Colorado Buffaloes, LSU Tigers, Mississippi State Bulldogs, Texas A&M Aggies, and Virginia Cavaliers. Pretty decent list for a kid who just turned 16 earlier this week.
