Williams Named an East-West Shrine Bowl All-Star

St. Petersburg, Fla. – UNI defensive back Xavior Williams was selected as an East-West Shrine Bowl All-Star.

The game will not be played, but Williams will have the chance to participate in virtual training sessions with NFL personnel and scouts ahead of the 2021 NFL draft.

Williams is the third Panther to be selected for a post-season all-star game. Spencer Brown and Elerson Smith were both chosen to participate in the Reese's Senior Bowl. He is the sixth Panther to be chosen for the East-West Shrine Bowl since Coach Mark Farley took over the program in 2001.
