NFL News: Patriots’ Kyle Williams helps corral field invader

New England Patriots wide receiver Kyle Williams helped corral a running man onto the field during a brief timeout at Super Bowl LX.

The ball was dead as NFL officials tried to break up an incident between Patriots star Stefon Diggs and Seattle Seahawks defensive back Josh Jobe. Both players were going at it and had to be separated by NFL officials and teammates in hopes of avoiding a penalty.

The man who ran onto the field probably wished the security guards had their attention elsewhere. He cut into the middle of the field. As Seahawks players watched the man walk past them, Williams ran and helped security guards corner the fan.

The man was missing a shirt, but Williams’ assistance was enough to help the guards and get the man off the field.

Williams had been a solid signing for the Patriots this season. He had 10 catches for 209 yards and three touchdowns in 2025. He also returned 11 kicks for 290 yards on special teams.

The Patriots were down 19-0 at that point and needed a big play to have a glimmer of hope and pull out a massive victory.
