Williams Stays, Fisch Takes Control | Washington Huskies Football News

Demond Williams Jr. nearly walked away from the University of Washington football program, sparking offseason drama—but ultimately chose to stay, reshaping the team’s future. Coach Jedd Fisch framed the situation as a new reality in college football, comparing Williams’ near-exit to an NFL trade request that didn’t go through. Fisch praised the open, honest dialogue they had, emphasizing Williams never officially entered the transfer portal. Meanwhile, Fisch took full control of playcalling, ditched the offensive coordinator role, and promoted former NFL QB JP Losman to coach Williams directly. With a revamped defense and strong offensive line, the Huskies’ season hinges on Williams’ leadership—and Fisch is confident he’s elite enough to carry them.
