◆FLEX

Kyle Williams's recent trend in snap share indicates a variable role, with his highest usage coming in Week 17 at 85%.

Role & volume
In the last four games before joining NYJ, Williams saw significant variance in his snap share and target share, ranging from a high of 85% snaps to as low as 10%, reflecting an inconsistent role.
Projected role
Given his recent trend with NE and now on NYJ, Williams is projected to have a limited but variable role, likely competing for targets in a crowded receiving corps.
Range (floor–ceiling)
Williams's floor remains low due to inconsistent usage, while his ceiling could be slightly higher if he secures more consistent snaps and targets on NYJ, but this is not guaranteed based on recent trends.

Risk & Opportunity Analysis (5 flags)

Risk Flags

2
  • Target Competition

    Williams sits at WR5 in New England's pecking order behind A.J. Brown, Romeo Doubs, DeMario Douglas, and Mack Hollins, all of whom hold clearer roles ahead of him for targets.

  • Usage & Volume

    A 5% target share and 0.13 WOPR in 2025 left almost no weekly floor, and his snap share actually slid from 46% to 24% across New England's playoff run despite the team's postseason success, suggesting coaches trust him less in the highest-leverage games.

Opportunity Flags

3
  • Offensive Context

    New England's trade of depth receiver Kayshon Boutte to Houston removed a target competitor and has helped Williams hold his WR5 spot into his second season, leaving some added runway if a receiver ahead of him falters.

  • Big-Play Upside

    An 18.9 aDOT with 44% deep targets gives Williams a boom-week ceiling as a field-stretching specialist even when his overall volume is thin.

  • QB Situation

    Playing alongside ascending young QB Drake Maye in an offense that reached the Super Bowl in the 2025 season gives Williams a strong long-term environment if his role expands.
