Four-star 2017 defensive end Jordan Williams out of Virginia Beach (VA) Cox picked signed his NLI on Wednesday morning confirmed by TigerNet.

"NSD Is Here," Williams tweeted. "Been Waiting My Whole Life For This Moment. Beyond Thankful For The Man Upstairs For Blessing Me With This Opportunity."

TigerNet spoke with Wiliams moments after his paperwork was official.

"Super excited just such a blessing to be able to be a part of this. I dreamed about this moment since I was little," Williams said.

Williams is a consensus 4-star recruit by all the major recruiting services and rated as high as the fifth-best defensive end in the country according to Rivals.com.

He is the No. 255 player in the ESPN300 and has 28 offers including from Clemson, Florida, Marshall, Maryland, Nebraska, North Carolina, North Carolina State, Notre Dame, Penn State, Pittsburgh, Purdue, South Carolina, Southern California, Temple, Texas State, Tennessee, Vanderbilt, Virginia, Virginia Tech and Wake Forest.

As a junior, he had 39 tackles, 13 tackles for loss, five sacks, two interceptions, seven pass deflections, a forced fumble and recovered two fumbles including one returned for a touchdown.

TigerNet spoke to Williams back during his three-day visit to Clemson for the All-In Cookout.

“The whole visit was great," Williams said. "It was definitely great to be able to get around all of the commits and all of the recruits and all of the coaches and the different families,” Williams told TigerNet. “It was great to get back on campus and eat all of the food and play all of the games and just be a part of everything. My visit the next day seeing all of the facilities and meeting with all of the academic people and spending time with people other than the football coaches that I see every day was definitely awesome. I was able to sit and listen to them talk about what I would be going through every day and different things they would have me going through with my parents."
