Texas A&M Losing Talented Wide Receiver to the Transfer Portal

In this story:
With the transfer portal signing period opening earlier this morning, Texas A&M football has lost quite a handful of its reserve talent this offseason. The most recent addition to the Aggies' collection of transfers is young wide receiver Izaiah Williams, a redshirt freshman who had limited production in his time in College Station.
A former four-star recruit, Williams opted to join the Maroon and White after spending his prep school days in his home state of Florida. Furthermore, he made a last-minute flip to join head coach Mike Elko after being previously committed to the Florida Gators.
Buried on the depth chart, Williams is looking for a new home and new quarterback to catch passes from. Let's take a look at what Williams' brought to the table and what he accomplished in a short time in Aggieland.
SEC-Level Talent

Although his total yards at A&M were below 100, the impact he had in one single game cannot be underestimated. After converting an improbable fourth-and-12 down 30-3, quarterback Marcel Reed connected with Williams for the Aggies' very first touchdown of the game.
The Maroon and White would later then engineer three straight touchdown drives that took a 30-3 hole into a 31-30 victory. A strong build of five-foot-eleven and 185 pounds, Williams has the measurables to be a top wide receiver in the right system.
However, with star wide receiver Mario Craver returning to be Reed's top target next year alongside young talents Ashton Bethel-Roman and Terry Bussey, Williams finds himself buried under the skills of other Southeastern Conference beasts.
Williams is just the third offensive player to enter the portal, following behind backup quarterback Miles O'Neill and tight end Theo Melin Öhrström. Losing players is obviously not an ideal situation for any team, but luckily for A&M, it has yet to lose a starter through the portal.
The Aggies have a handful of true freshman pass catchers coming in from this recruiting cycle including consensus four-star Jayden Warren, who has lettered in three sports in high school. Additionally, Elko and Co. have their sights set on bringing in the dynamic talent of Auburn transfer wide receiver Cam Coleman.
Once an A&M commit, Coleman could replace the vacant spot on the depth chart that Williams leaves behind. This young wide receiver is looking to get his career started in college football, but now it's just a matter of where it will begin.
