Kyle Williams Breaks Off 72-Yard Touchdown For First Career Score in Week 10 Win
New England Patriots rookie wide receiver Kyle Williams made one of the highlight plays of the week with a 72-yard catch and run touchdown, marking his first career score in a 28-23 Week 10 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Williams had only one reception on two targets, but the rookie made it count as he showed off his blazing speed on the long score. The rookie third-rounder hit a max speed of 21.78 mph on the play, which was the seventh fastest top speed by any player in the NFL this season, per Next Gen Stats. It was the highest mark by a Patriot all season until fellow rookie TreVeyon Henderson one-upped him, hitting 22.01 mph on his 55-yard touchdown run. Williams was expected to see more action with Kayshon Boutte (hamstring) out, but he had just a 58% route share in the game. It will be interesting to see how the wide receiver rotation shakes out when Boutte returns, but Williams flashed his big-play ability and certainly warrants more snaps going forward.
