Williams' on-target rate doubled from 2025 Week 1, matching his season-best accuracy.

Williams improved dramatically on accuracy metrics: his 84.0% On-Target Rate in Week 1 matched his best 2025 performance (Week 15 vs. Cleveland) and more than doubled his 41.7% mark from Week 1 of 2025 against Minnesota; short-level passing was perfect at 100.0% (15/15), while deep-level passing improved to 60.0% (6/10).
