2025 Fantasy Outlook
The first season with Kaulig Racing didn't quite yield the results expected of this veteran driver and this capable race team. Williams nabbed just four Top 10's last season and finished 18th in the final driver standings. Much more was expected but it didn't materialize. Nonetheless, the team signed him to a multi-season deal in 2023 and will once again field Williams in the No. 11 Chevrolet in 2025. Williams big issue that he needs to work on in the coming season is DNF's. He logged seven of those disappointments last year and it overshadowed his four Top 10's and inflated his average finish to 21.7. We expect modestly better results from Williams in the upcoming season but no dramatic reversals. Read Past Outlooks
Limited Cup Schedule with Kaulig
Kaulig Racing announced that Williams will run the No. 16 Alloy Employer Services Camaro ZL1 in select NASCAR Cup Series races during the 2024 season, beginning with the Busch Light Clash at the Coliseum on Feb. 4.
ANALYSIS
Williams will be racing full-time in the Xfinity Series this season for Kaulig, but he will now also take on some limited Cup starts in the team's No. 16 Chevrolet. After the Clash the veteran driver's next start will be at Atlanta Motor Speedway in late-February. More starts are planned, but they have not been announced at this point. Williams has some limited Cup Series experience, so this is an exciting opportunity for him to compete at NASCAR's top level with a competitive car.

2019
After eight seasons of racing in this division of NASCAR, Williams finally gets the big team upgrade that he's long-deserved. The 30-year-old Floridian takes the wheel of the No. 11 Kaulig Racing Chevrolet. This is the same car that Daniel Hemric piloted to 32 Top-10 finishes over the last two campaigns and nabbed a pair of Top-10 points finishes. Hemric has moved on to the Cup Series and leaves Williams to keep this team elevated. While he's had just one Top-15 season of his eight Xfinity Series campaigns, we have to put that in context. Williams has raced mainly for small, ill-equipped teams during his time. His 186 starts of experience have been a labor of love (of racing) and have prepared him for this jump. Kaulig and new crew chief, Kevin Walter, will give Williams all the tools he needs to succeed. A first-career win may be just out of reach, but many Top-10 finishes should be in store.
