Louisiana Tech defensive lineman Milton Williams invited to NFL Combine

RUSTON, La. – Though there is no NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis this year, Louisiana Tech’s Milton Williams earned a spot on the invite list.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the NFL Combine will be done virtually with each school’s Pro Day taking place of the usual workouts done in Indianapolis.

Williams, a 6-4, 278-pound defensive lineman, earned 2020 First Team All-C-USA honors by both the conference and Phil Steele, and was named a third team All-American by Pro Football Focus.

In the 2020 season, the native of Crowley, Texas, ranked third in C-USA in tackles for loss with 10.0 and seventh in sacks with 4.5. Williams was fifth on the team in tackles with 44, including 21 solo. He had a season-high eight tackles and a career-high 3.0 TFLs against UAB on Oct. 31. Williams registered at least three tackles in every game of the 2020 campaign. He also posted two quarterback hurries and one fumble recovery during the season. During his LA Tech career, Williams registered 106 total tackles, including 49 solo, 19.0 for loss and 10.0 sacks.
