Valentine’s Day just got extra special for Alabama wide receiver Ryan Williams. While most couples exchanged chocolates and flowers on that auspicious day, Alabama Williams and his girlfriend, Alexis Hill, appeared to exchange something far more permanent, sending fans into a celebratory frenzy.

While Ryan Williams and his girlfriend Alexis Hill got engaged on 14 February, she posted an IG story showing off her massive diamond ring. First, it started with a usual Valentine’s post where both of them posted a selfie together with a caption that reads, “My forever valentine.” Then they dropped the massive news very subtly with a picture.

The moment this news came out, fans started pouring their love for the couple, commenting under their story, “So freakin happy for you! You DESERVE THIS” and “Congratulations.”

The first four posts on Alexis’s feed are from game days, indicating that she has been a constant figure cheering from the sidelines.

Alexis Hill showed up in Alabama’s game last season with her head-turning outfits. The one that stood out the most was her black leather jacket with Williams’s name and jersey number in red letters during their game against Tennessee. She even paired the look with red slouchy boots and a matching pendant, and her charm worked! Alabama beat Tennessee.

Even Williams holds a special place in her heart, as before the Rose Bowl game, she shared a heartfelt message thanking him for everything he did for her. In her posts, Hill described Williams as ‘perfect husband material,’ praising him for the happiness and support he brings to her life.

“I am most thankful for my boyfriend this year because you’ve brought me so much comfort, happiness, and support into my life,” Alexis said on her IG story.

Ryan Williams’ partner has a highlight on her Instagram page that reads, “2🤍,” which is Williams’ jersey number. The stories show her constant sideline support, where Williams comes in after every game to hug her. Now, all that support and love will remain with him forever.

While Alabama’s Ryan Williams is solidifying his future off the field with a Valentine’s Day engagement, his future on the field is facing major questions after an inconsistent season.

Ryan Williams’ 2026 season is a big question mark

Alabama enters the 2026 season with major questions at its wide receivers’ position, as it lost two of its key starters. Germie Bernard left for the NFL draft, and Isaiah Horton transferred to Texas A&M from the portal. The team does have Ryan Williams, but the surrounding depth is thin.

Now, here comes the bigger question: Will Ryan Williams be able to handle the starting position? He does have potential, but has shown a lot of inconsistencies, too. The concern for Alabama is the downward trend in Williams’ production.

Despite similar reception numbers, his yardage and touchdown totals plummeted last season. This inefficiency was underscored by a critical issue with drops, as his SEC-leading 10 drops made him a liability on 16.9% of his targets, according to PFF.

Even he knows his struggles as he reflected on his journey after the Rose Bowl.

“Gave me a lot of chances to look myself in the mirror,” Williams said. “Enjoy being around the guys, being the best version of me I can be, whether I’m having a great performance or it doesn’t go my way. It really showed me this year it’s the ultimate team sport and just try to focus on doing my 1/11 for the squad.”

With his personal life more secure than ever, the pressure now mounts for Williams to match that stability on the field and prove he can be the reliable No. 1 receiver the Crimson Tide desperately needs.
