Alabama Drops Behind-the-Scenes Video of Ryan Williams' EA CFB 26 Cover Shoot

Alabama released an exclusive behind-the-scenes video of standout wide receiver Ryan Williams at his cover shoot for EA Sports' College Football 26.

Williams and Ohio State wideout Jeremiah Smith were previously revealed as the game's two cover athletes.

The Crimson Tide receiver also met former USC star and 2005 Heisman Trophy winner Reggie Bush at the cover shoot, who called Williams "the future of college football" as well as "the future of the NFL" (7:50 mark).

Expectations are high for the 18-year-old as he prepares for his sophomore season at Alabama.

Williams racked up 48 catches for 865 yards while scoring 10 total touchdowns as a freshman in 2024, averaging an impressive 18.0 yards per reception.

He repeatedly stepped up in key moments for the Tide, highlighted by a go-ahead 75-yard touchdown that propelled Alabama to a 41-34 win over Georgia.

With Williams wrapping up his cover shoot and looking to build upon his breakout inaugural year, head coach Kalen DeBoer is also attempting to help the team improve upon a 9-4 finish last season.

College Football 26 is set to release on July 10.
