Colorado WR Joseph Williams added to Biletnikoff Award watch list

Colorado WR Joseph Williams was added to the Biletnikoff Award watch list after being one of the Big 12's top receivers through five weeks.

Colorado football's top performer appears to be wide receiver Joseph Williams. He has been the best receiver in the Big 12 conference, ranking third with 454 receiving yards and leading the conference in receiving touchdowns with five. Williams was added to the Biletnikoff Award watch list by the Tallahassee Quarterback Club Foundation on Wednesday.

The Biletnikoff Award is presented annually to the top college football receiver. Colorado's Travis Hunter won the award in 2024, while USC's Makai Lemon claimed it last season. Williams did not make the preseason watch list, unlike his teammates Kam Perry and Danny Scudero. Notably, Williams is tied for 15th in receptions (32), 17th in receiving yards (17th in receiving yards), and 11th in touchdowns (11th in touchdowns).

If he continues at this rate, he has a strong chance of becoming a semifinalist for the Biletnikoff Award, similar to Scudero's performance last year at San Jose State.
