    One of Alabama football’s most explosive players in 2024 should still be in high school.

    Crimson Tide receiver Ryan Williams, a 2025 recruit who reclassified to the class of 2024, was the No. 4 overall prospect and the No. 3 receiver in the most recent recruiting cycle, according to 247Sports’ Composite rankings.

    He is also too young to vote in the upcoming elections.

    The 17-year-old is Alabama’s leading receiver so far this season, catching 10 passes for 285 yards and four touchdowns for an average of 28.5 yards per reception.

    He is also the youngest player in FBS.

    The promising candidate certainly had the qualities to contribute as a freshman and came to Tuscaloosa as the first two-time Mr. Football winner in the state of Alabama, a state known for its football tradition and influx of talent. He also had an incredibly productive last two years in high school, racking up over 4,600 yards and 65 touchdowns at Saraland High School.

    Here’s everything you need to know about Williams, one of the most talented young players in football:
