Scout report

Squad depthCentral midfielder

R. Williams is a 30-year-old central midfielder at Detroit City, rated 15.9 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 222nd of 272 on scout potential in the USL Championship. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (30% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.02 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Williams.

Judged on this season alone, Williams graded 10 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 42nd of 65 of the 65 central midfielders in the USL Championship, on 0 goals, 1 assist and 3.021 defensive actions per 90.

We hold a single season for Williams, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 16, 55th of 65 of the 65 central midfielders in the USL Championship. At 30 Williams is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1 reflects that trajectory.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 30% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 15.9, Williams carries the 55th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the USL Championship of 65 — though on just 14 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.02 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
