Prior to the 2019 NFL season, the Oakland Raiders brought Tyrell Williams in during free agency to be the team's WR2 behind Antonio Brown. Due to Brown's antics, Williams was forced into the top spot on the depth chart prior to the team's Week 1 game against the Denver Broncos.
Early on, it looked like Williams would fit the bill as the team's top wide receiver, as he scored a touchdown in each of the team's first four games. When he returned from injury later in the season, he scored in that game as well, proving to be a viable option for Derek Carr in the passing game.
