Ole Miss Rebels wide receiver Ayden Williams has entered the NCAA Transfer Portal, On3 has learned.

Williams played high school football at Ridgeland (Ridgeland, MS), where he was a four-star prospect. He was the No. 82 overall recruit in the 2023 cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.

In two seasons with Ole Miss, Williams caught seven passes for 119 yards, never scoring a touchdown. This past season, Williams amassed 39 yards on three receptions.

As a recruit, he was sought after by programs such as South Carolina, Georgia and LSU. It remains to be seen if they come calling once again, as he moves on with his football journey and enters the transfer portal.
