Richmond Williams enters his fifth year with the Packers in 2012 and first as an area scout. Promoted on May 23, 2012, Williams previously served as the team’s National Football Scouting representative to the annual NFL Scouting Combine and authored evaluations of all prospective seniors in the Southwest region. He spent the 2007 training camp as a scouting intern with the Packers.
Also in 2007, Williams volunteered as an assistant in the football office at his alma mater, the University of Iowa. His duties included helping coaches plan their recruiting trips and breaking down defensive game film.
Prior to working in the football office, the 28-year-old Williams lettered two years as a cornerback for Iowa. He earned the Iowa “Team Leader” award all four years of his career, given by the coaching staff to the player who made high contributions on scout and special teams during weekly preparation. Williams was teammates with former Packers DT Colin Cole, as well as several other NFL players, including S Bob Sanders (San Diego) and G Robert Gallery (New England). In 2006, Williams earned a B.A. in economics, as well as a certificate of entrepreneurship.
Williams is the brother-in-law of Cole, and is the director of football operations for the Cole Group, an organization formed by Colin and his wife, Kay, that provides consultation services to high school student-athletes. Williams’ duties include designing football camps and making preparations for seminars.
Born Nov. 11, 1983, in Aiken, S.C., Williams was a two-sport athlete in football and track and field at North Augusta (S.C.) High School. He played cornerback and wide receiver, and was a state-champion long jumper as a senior, also participating in the 4x100-meter relay. Williams was named to the Who’s Who in Scholar Student-Athletes in 2001, and was named North Augusta’s Star Student-Athlete of the Week.
Williams has stayed active in the community by coaching a Little League football team, reading to elementary school students, and working at a literacy summer camp.
Nicknamed “Richey,” Williams is single and resides in Dallas, Texas. His top three travel destinations are California, Florida and Hawaii. He enjoys playing basketball and watching movies.
