Alabama star wide receiver shuts down transfer rumors

Urban Meyer joins Colin Cowherd to discuss Ohio State being favorites to repeat as CFP Champions, Alabama and Miami proving they're contenders, and Michigan searching for their next head coach.

Alabama wide receiver Ryan Williams had a breakout freshman season with the Crimson Tide, eclipsing 45 catches and 800 yards receiving in 13 games.

He had a quieter season in 2025 than he, or Alabama fans, would have hoped. Through 13 games, he has 43 catches for 636 yards and four touchdown receptions. As Williams gears up to play Indiana in the College Football Playoff quarterfinals, he was asked about the possibility of hitting the transfer portal.

Williams shut down any notion of him leaving Alabama on Tuesday.

"Of course," he told AL.com when asked about whether he would return for his junior season. "I’m Alabama through and through. I have no intentions of being anywhere else."

Williams said the 2025 season has brought him opportunities to learn and grow as a player as he continues his collegiate career.

He only had one catch for five yards against Oklahoma in the first round of the College Football Playoff. Alabama won the game, 34-24.
