Newly acquired receiver Mike Williams is the winner of the 2024 NFL Way to Play Award for Week 10.

This is the seventh year for the award, which recognizes NFL players who exemplify proper technique to make impactful plays.

Williams, who was acquired via a trade with the New York Jets just days before the Steelers played the Washington Commanders, won the award for his game-winning 32-yard touchdown reception from Russell Wilson with just 2:27 left in the game. It was the only pass thrown to Williams in the entire game and secured a 28-27 win for the Steelers.

“You’ve got to love clutch moments,” said Wilson. “When you’ve got guys that can make plays and do things for you, first of all, Big Mike over there, just traded for him. He’s a tremendous football player.

“It was a big time catch by Mike. I just try to give them a chance and let him do his thing. A guy who’s made plays, a guy who’s faced some adversity. You love it when guys face adversity and they come through on the other end of it. He had a great week of practice.”

One thing that he didn’t practice at all though was the route that was run on the touchdown catch, and he still came through.

“I didn’t run it one time,” said Williams.

The award was implemented with the idea of player safety and showing big-time plays can be made in the right manner.

“Through the award, football players and fans from around the world can see real-time examples of excellent football fundamentals and skill development,” said Troy Vincent, NFL Executive Vice President of Football Operations.

Williams will receive a $5,000 equipment grant through USA Football to be awarded to the local youth or high school football program of his choice.
