New England Patriots wide receiver Kyle Williams delivered an early offensive spark during Thursday’s preseason matchup against the Cleveland Browns. The second-year receiver hauled in a 45-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Tommy DeVito, giving the Patriots an early lead after the extra point was successful.
Williams’ scoring reception came on an impressive individual effort, as he separated from his defender to create separation downfield. The touchdown capped off a six-play drive covering 76 yards that consumed just over three minutes of clock time. The score was particularly noteworthy given that New England’s defense had struggled early in the contest against Cleveland’s offense.
The touchdown reception marked Williams’ third of the preseason, highlighting what has been a productive three-week span for the wide receiver. His performance through the exhibition schedule has given the Patriots coaching staff plenty to consider as they prepare for the regular season. Despite the team’s early defensive challenges, the offensive production provided encouragement as the preseason concluded.
