Williams setting hot pace for JSU receivers

JACKSON, Mississippi -- Daniel Williams gave himself a “B” for his performance through four games this season.

If that’s the case, it’s difficult to imagine what the Jackson State receiver’s “A” game looks like.

Williams had a 1,000-yard campaign as a sophomore, but has taken his game to new heights with 30 catches for 517 yards and four touchdowns so far this season.

“His maturity level has been the most important thing, a big difference from last year,” Tigers wide receivers coach Derrick McCall said on Tuesday. “He’s always been a hard worker, and I think he’s putting everything into perspective as to what could possibly be at the next level (NFL). So he has taken it to a different level as far as film study and work ethic.”

The junior’s business-like approach has him placed at third in the FCS receiving yards rankings. He’s fourth in receiving yards per game with 129.3. He’s first in the SWAC in receptions per game with 7.5.
