FCS Football Central releases Preseason All-American Team

JACKSON, Miss. | FCS Football Central released its 2025 Preseason All-American Teams ahead of the season on Thursday, featuring three Jackson State student-athletes including a first-team selection in Jeremiah Williams. This year's All-American Team features 113 players representing all 13 conferences and 51 schools

Williams returns after an All-American season and the Defensive Most Valuable Player award at the Cricket Celebration Bowl. The redshirt senior was named FCS Football Central All-American after recording 58 total tackles, including 22 solo stops. He also recorded 7.5 tackles for loss and a pair of sacks. Williams recorded a season-high nine tackles against Florida A&M (Oct. 19), and seven tackles against Grambling State (Sept. 21) and Alabama A&M (Oct. 5). He recorded at least one tackle in 13 of the 14 games last season, and recorded four quarterback hurries.

He was joined by second team all-purpose selection Travis Terrell Jr., who was named to First Team All-Conference by several publications and the SWAC. He was also named Third Team FCS Football Central All-American, FCS All-American, FCS Football Central All-American, and honorable mention by the Associated Press. He was also named the Freshman of the Year by the SWAC and Phil Steele last season, and was named to the Jerry Rice Award Watch List (freshman of the year). He was ranked among the best in the nation in returns, leading the nation in kick returns for touchdowns with two. He also ranked in the top five nationally in three other categories, including third in punt returns (16.7), fourth in combined kick returns (851), fifth in kickoff returns (30.6), and 36th in all-purpose yards (108.08). The sophomore also ran the ball 459 yards on 75 carries with four touchdowns, and also caught 15 passes for 95 yards on the offensive side of the ball.

They were joined by third-team selection Nate Rembert, coming off a first-team all-conference selection from a season ago. Rembert, a Second Team HBCU All-American last season, recorded 70 receptions for 1,038 yards at Mississippi Valley State. He recorded four touchdowns and averaged 86.5 yards per game last season, and is one of only four receivers at Mississippi Valley State to record 1,000 yards receiving in a season.

All three were chosen First Team All-SWAC last week at SWAC Media Day, and the All-American honors are the second for Williams and Terrell.

Jackson State opens the season at home against Hampton on Aug. 30.
