UNC Running Back Javonte Williams Earning Early Hype

Posted Aug 5, 2019
It didn’t take Michael Carter long to compare fellow UNC running back Javonte Williams to one of the top running backs in the NFL. “He finishes runs. Ezekiel Elliott never falls back. I don’t want to compare him to that, but I probably would because he’s built well. Ezekiel Elliott doesn’t look as big as he is, but he always finishes forward and he’s very physical.” (Inside Carolina)
