Nick Williams has had an inconsistent career in the NFL. In 2013, after four years at UConn, Williams was signed to the Washington Redskins as an undrafted free agent. The results were disappointing, as he played in only five games before being cut from the team.
One year later, he was signed by the Atlanta Falcons where he would spend the next three seasons on and off the active roster. He was most productive in 2015, catching 17 passes on 25 targets for 159 yards and two touchdowns. But in his final two years with the Falcons, Williams entered only three combined games before ultimately being cut from the team.
