Kyle Williams talks about increased role with A.J. Brown sidelined

New England Patriots wide receiver Kyle Williams addressed the media on September 18, 2026, discussing his opportunity to step up following A.J. Brown's multi-game injury absence. Brown's sidelining is expected to lead to more playing time for Williams, who contributed on special teams in the season opener against Seattle. Williams expressed his readiness to showcase his skills in upcoming games, particularly in their match against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels may utilize Williams in various offensive strategies to enhance the team's performance following a disappointing start.
