Rookie Tyler Lockett is turning heads at training camp because of his abilities at wide receiver.

Throw in one more name to the mix as a standout so far in training camp: Kasen Williams.

Injuries derailed Williams' last two seasons at Washington, but it appears he's nearly fully healthy again.

Head coach Pete Carroll only had high praise for his play thus far.

"He's battling out here," Carroll said. "He's a real tough, aggressive, physical type of receiver, which we love his style. So we'll just let it keep going. You certainly can go to him. You can throw the ball to him and he's going to make plays, you can see that."

Williams is taking advantage of his opportunity, but is it enough to warrant a spot on the final 53-man roster?

The team already boasts Doug Baldwin, Jermaine Kearse, Chris Matthews, Paul Richardson, Kevin Norwood, Ricardo Lockette and rookie Tyler Lockett at the position.

Williams is facing an uphill battle, but it's something he's accustomed to.
