Jakhari Williams

Jakhari Williams flew somewhat under the national radar throughout his first few years of high school football because First Presbyterian Day School is a member of the Georgia Independent Athletic Association, a new division of the Georgia Independent School Association. The school previously was part of GHSA but left for GIAA before the start of this academic year. But those that did their homework on Williams knew he had the talent to be one of the best high school quarterbacks in the country. “He can run, and he can throw it a mile,” Presbyterian Day School coach Greg Moore told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. “He’s got a good touch, he’s very athletic. He is just a really, really good kid. I tell you, he is the most pleasant person in the world to talk to.” Williams was a true dual-threat quarterback in 2022, racking up nearly 1,000 yards on the grown and throwing for more than 2,100 yards and 20 touchdown passes. Away from football, Williams also plays basketball and track. His hobbies are fishing and boating. He plans on majoring in business in college. Williams’ parents are Cherrell Lundy and Elkanah Williams.
