Jonas Williams

USC quarterback commit Jonas Williams was named a 2025 Elite 11 quarterback on Friday, following a three-day performance at the Elite 11 finals at Mira Costa High School in Manhattan Beach. Texas five-star commit Dia Bell was named the Elite 11 MVP with Williams included as one of the top 12 quarterbacks at the event. In all, 20 quarterbacks participated.

The Elite 11 coaches in the past have ranked quarterbacks No. 1 through 11. This year, they were announced as a group alphabetically, so his actual rank in the group is unknown.

The event did rank the quarterbacks after the first two days and Williams was No. 9 going into the final day.

Williams got better as the event went along and saved his best for last. On3’s Charles Power had this to say of Williams’ performance during Thursday’s 7-on-7 portion of the event:

“USC commit Jonas Williams was outstanding on Day 3, turning in one of the best 7-on-7 sessions from the group. He built a great connection with the wide receivers while completing 18 of 22 passes for seven touchdowns. While the arm strength will not blow you away, Williams is a polished passer with a refined skill level.”

Here’s a look at Williams throughout the event:
