FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — Kyle Williams took a moment to reflect on the past while also looking a bit towards the future.
The young receiver addressed reporters following Community Day at Gillette Stadium, and was asked about the potential of the New England Patriots trading for A.J. Brown.
“I’m focused on where my feet are,” Williams said. “If it happens it happens. If it doesn’t, we still gotta keep going.”“He’s somebody that I studied a little bit. I’m not as big as him, but I try to play big if I can,” Williams added. “He’s just a great player. Great habits, a consistent guy. He’s a player you would want to look up to and watch.”
However, Williams did have the benefit last season of playing alongside Stefon Diggs. And it was an experience he is beyond thankful for as the veteran receiver served as a mentor.“Everything from when I first met him, to his last day here, I know I can take a lot from it, going on from here to the end of my career,” Williams said of Diggs. “Just the wise words, and wise lessons that he taught me.”
Diggs was released by the Patriots in March due to financial ramifications, but it's clear the receiver is well-liked among the team, with many of his former teammates trying to encourage him to re-sign with New England. And that remains to be seen as he has yet to find a new home. But a lot will also depend on what happens with Brown after the June 1 deadline.
