Ronell Williams was hired as a graduate assistant in January, 2017, to work with the defense. One year later, Williams was promoted to the role of defensive analyst - operations.
Williams spent the 2016 season at Widener College as an assistant coach, specifically in training and developing the team’s linebacker core. Under Williams' tutoring, the senior duo of Steve Gozur (89) and Tyrone Bundy (48) finished the season as the top-two tacklers on the team. Gozur went on to earn first-team All-Middle-Atlantic Conference (MAC) honors and rank first in the conference and 11th in Division III in solo tackles (69), while Bundy was a second-team All-MAC selection.Â
The former linebacker was a four-year letterman at Division II West Chester University, where he led the team in tackles for three straight seasons (2011-13). He became the first sophomore and third defensive player in school history to earn first-team All-America honors by the American Football Coaches Association (AFCA) in 2012.
He was also a three-time first team All-Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) and two-time first team All-Super Region 1 recipient at the middle linebacker position. As a junior, Williams was a finalist for the Cliff Harris Award, which is given to the top defensive player in all of small college football.
Away from the gridiron, the Chester native has given back to his community as a mentor and counselor for the Chester Panthers (Chester PAL) and Kevin Jones and John Mobley Football camps, to go along with the Glen Mills' school system.
Williams earned a bachelor’s degree in exercise sciences with a concentration in pre-occupational therapy in 2014. The Golden Rams’ standout currently ranks third in school history in total tackles (376) and second in assisted tackles (223).Â
