Kyle Williams struggles for position on Patriots' receiver depth chart
Summary

During training camp on July 27, 2026, Kyle Williams was observed practicing as the WR7 for the New England Patriots, indicating challenges in securing a spot on the roster. With the team adding notable receivers such as A.J. Brown and Romeo Doubs, Williams faces stiff competition. Although he performed in all 17 games last season, catching 10 passes for 209 yards and three touchdowns, his position seems precarious, especially since Efton Chism III may have surpassed him in the depth chart. With the Patriots needing to finalize their roster soon, Williams must improve to avoid being cut.
