Brett Weston Williams (born May 2, 1980) is a former American football offensive tackle in the National Football League. Drafted in the fourth round of the 2003 NFL draft, Williams played two full seasons for the Kansas City Chiefs. Going into his third season, he suffered a career-ending injury.
His football career developed at Osceola High School in Kissimmee, Florida, where he also excelled in Track & Field and Weightlifting. Following graduation in 1998, he joined the Seminoles of Florida State, where he had an impressive college career. Starting in two National Championships (and being on the team for a third—his red shirt year), the 1999 Florida State team won the National Championship, defeating Virginia Tech.
Williams earned many awards during his career at Florida State. In 2002, he was selected as a Playboy All-American, and Williams was the recipient of the Jacobs Blocking Trophy Award twice (given to the top offensive lineman in the ACC) in 2001 and 2002.
His younger brother, Blake Williams, also played football for Florida State University.
Brett Williams currently is the owner of Apex Sports and Fitness where he specializes in the strength and conditioning training of high school and college students. Williams resides in Boca Raton, Florida, with his wife, Sarah, and their four children.
