Select members of the 2022 class have been on campus now for over a month, settling into their new homes and getting set into their daily routines. Classes have begun, and spring football practice looms, which will give these players a chance to get a leg up ahead of the fall.

One of the highest-ranked newcomers is four-star running back Justin Williams, who picked Tennessee over Auburn after decommitting from West Virginia. Williams picked Tennessee likely in part due to a chance to play right off the bat, potentially sliding in behind Jabari Small on the depth chart.

Before we get to see Williams take the field, Tennessee gave us a chance to get to know him a little better during their latest episode of First and Ten.

Williams was the 283rd ranked prospect in the 2022 class, per 247Sports. The 6-0, 205 pound back now enters the running back picture, set to battle Len’Neth Whitehead, Jaylen Wright, Jabari Small and Dylan Sampson for playing time in Josh Heupel’s electric offense.
