S3E9: UTSA Football/NFL Alumni & Founder of 2Ten Development - Jarveon Williams c/o 2017

Episode Summary

When you pour over the record books of UTSA football, one name on the offensive side of the ball will continually jump out at you: Jarveon Williams. Hailing from nearby Converse, Texas, and the football powerhouse of Judson High School, Williams would leave an indelible mark on the program by the time he went off to the NFL in 2016. Finishing with 2,393 total rushing yards and 19 career rushing touchdowns, Williams also holds the single season rushing record and is tied for second all-time in rushing touchdowns. After leaving San Antonio, Williams would sign as an undrafted free agent with the Cincinnati Bengals in 2017, ultimately making the roster before being waived before the 2018 season. In 2019, Williams would catch on with the Montreal Alouettes of the Canadian Football League, rushing for 70 yards and reaching the end zone once in two games up north. In addition to his resume of budding pro football star and father, Williams has added philanthropist and business owner to his long list of accomplishments.
