More than most raw rookies, Texans undrafted wide receiver Wendall Williams had a lot to learn when he joined the AFC South champions as a free agent this spring.
Williams played at an NAIA school, the University of the Cumberlands, that ran a run-first, triple-option offense.
And the former track star, who ran a 4.19 unofficial 40-yard dash for NFL scouts with an official time of 4.32 seconds and registered a 45-inch vertical leap, had a lot of knowledge to absorb about a pro-style offense.
The 25-year-old native of Syracuse, N.Y., attended several junior colleges before buckling down academically and excelling as the NAIA national outdoor champion in the long jump, an All-American in the 100 meters and 200 meters.
