Name: James Williams
Position: Punter/Placekicker
Year: Freshman
Height: 6’1”
Weight: 208 lbs.
Hometown: Watkinsville, Ga.

2020 stats: Although he was the backup to Nolan Cooney all season, Williams wasn’t needed and didn’t play in any games.
2021 projections: With Cooney graduating, Williams is the presumptive starter at punter for the Syracuse Orange. The assumption is that he’ll also take kickoffs for SU, with the last two Orange punters in Sterling Hofrichter and Cooney doing the same.
