Replacement
Williams flashed dynamic scrambling and bootleg accuracy, but severe pocket lapses and reckless decisions against pressure limited him to an inconsistent 65.2 grade.

The full breakdown
Williams generated spark plays with his legs and off-platform throws, highlighted by a 16-yard strike on third down (Q2 06:55) and multiple scrambles for first downs (Q3 14:10, Q3 05:19). However, major negative plays heavily suppressed his 64 passing grade. He threw an ill-advised interception into coverage off his back foot (Q1 01:47), panicked into an intentional grounding penalty (Q2 02:13), and drifted into a massive 17-yard sack (Q2 00:15). A missed read option keeper for a loss (Q3 11:28) also kept his rushing grade from reaching elite territory.
