Terrance Tyrone Williams (born September 8, 1989) is an American football wide receiver for the Dallas Cowboys of the National Football League (NFL). He was drafted by the Cowboys in the third round of the 2013 NFL Draft. He played college football at Baylor, where he earned All-American recognition.
Williams was born in Highland Hills, Dallas. He attended W. T. White High School in Dallas, and played for the White Longhorns high school football team. As a senior he had 59 receptions for 972 yards and eight touchdowns. Considered a two-star recruit by Rivals.com, he accepted a scholarship to Baylor over an offer from Colorado State.
Williams attended Baylor University, where he played for the Baylor Bears football team from 2008 to 2012. During his college career, he had 202 receptions for 3,334 yards with 27 touchdowns. Williams was also a Biletnikoff Award finalist for 2011. In 2012, he led the nation with 1,832 receiving yards.
In the 2013 NFL Draft, the Dallas Cowboys traded down in the first round with the San Francisco 49ers, in exchange for a third round pick that the team used to select Williams with the 74th overall pick.
Williams struggled in training camp adjusting to the team's offense, but by the end of the preseason he had supplanted Dwayne Harris as the third wide receiver. He again struggled at the start of the regular season with his route running and dropped passes, until the fourth game against the San Diego Chargers, where he started in place of an injured Miles Austin and registered seven receptions for 71 yards, but also had a critical fumble trying to extend for a touchdown in the last minutes of the game. He started the next week playing against the Denver Broncos and had four receptions for 151 yards with one touchdown. By week 8 against the Detroit Lions, Williams set a Cowboys' franchise record for rookies, with a touchdown in his 4th consecutive game. He returned to his third receiver position in the 11th game of the season against the New York Giants and also started returning kickoffs in place of an injured Harris.
