Texas A&M Aggies head coach Mike Elko confirmed that wide receiver Madden Williams will be out for the entire 2026 season due to a lower-body injury sustained during practice. Williams will require surgery for his injury.
He was not in uniform for the season opener against Missouri State, joining safety Tawfiq Byard on the sidelines. Williams becomes the third wide receiver unavailable for the Aggies before the season begins, following Jonah Wilson's departure from the roster and Jerome Myles' exit due to personal reasons. Myles, a former five-star recruit, missed the entire 2025 season due to injury.
In Williams' absence, Texas A&M will depend on its main wide receivers: Mario Craver, Isaiah Horton, and Ashton Bethel-Roman. True freshman Aaron Gregory had a notable performance in the opener, catching a 15-yard touchdown pass and finishing with two receptions for 22 yards. Kelshaun Johnson and TK Norman will also see increased opportunities, with Johnson recording three catches for 25 yards against Missouri State.
The team is expected to finalize the wide receiver depth chart in the upcoming games before facing LSU in Baton Rouge.
