 Buchholz (Fla.) High four-star wide receiver Justin Williams has committed to Florida, he told On3’s Hayes Fawcett.

Williams chose the Gators over Florida State, Kentucky, Indiana and more than a dozen other offers. They see him as a dynamic playmaker who can do damage all over the field, and particularly from the slot.

“That slot role is the main place they see me fitting in,” he told GatorsOnline last month. I think that’s actually another thing I really want to get out of the visit. On my other visits, they showed me where I fit in and how I’d be used. That’s what I am excited to see at Florida this weekend. I think I’m someone who can fit in at the slot there. Be a motion guy, line up in the backfield, take rushes, and be a receiver too. That’s what I see myself.”

The 5-foot-11, 190-pounder is the No. 188 overall prospect in the 2026 class, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He also ranks as the nation’s No. 27 wide receiver and No. 24 player in Florida.

As a junior, Williams was one of the Sunshine State’s most dominant offensive threats. He finished with 1,473 receiving yards and 13 touchdowns at wide receiver, while surpassing 1,000 rushing yards and 16 scores at running back. He ended the season with 30 total touchdowns after also recording a kick-return touchdown.

He’s the second commitment of the day for Billy Napier and Co., joining Lakewood (Fla.) offensive tackle Chancellor Campbell.

The Gators are now up to four pledges this month, with Williams and Campbell joining three-star offensive lineman G’Nivre Carr and four-star safety Kaiden Hall.
