He’s one of the best competitors we have,” Quinn said. “And that’s really how he played his way on to the team, in terms of, ‘OK, you’re here because of the way you battle and compete.’” Williams has made the most of his opportunities in 2015 and has developed a reputation as someone who can move the chains. So far he’s averaging 10.9 yards per catch, and seven of his nine receptions have gone for first downs. “The times that we target him, he just seems to come up with first down catch after first down catch,” said Quinn. “I think it’s that ability to know that when you go over in his direction, he’s coming down with it. He is a great competitor.”<< [/QUOTE]
