Myzel Williams - Safety

Williams is more suited for the free safety slot, but can operate at either spot deep in the secondary. He tracks the ball in the air with relative ease, but is also not afraid to come into the box and pursue ballcarriers in the backfield. The 6-foot, 190-pound defensive back out of Deltona is the No. 92 safety in the Class of 2021 and the No. 128 prospect in the talent-rise state of Florida according to 247Sports' in-house rankings.
