Landen Williams-Callis: Houston's Career TD Leader with Unfinished Business at Randle

Records tend to fall when Landen Williams-Callis has the ball. Two weeks ago, the Richmond Randle running back became Houston's all-time career touchdown leader—and the name he erased from the top of that list belongs to his older cousin, former Lamar Consolidated, Oregon State, and NFL running back Jacquizz Rodgers.

The milestone is the latest chapter in a career that has been building since Williams-Callis arrived at Randle as a freshman and posted more than 2,100 all-purpose yards and 27 touchdowns in year one. Now a senior in the 2026 season, he has an outside shot at the Texas all-time career rushing record, with a University of Texas commitment waiting on the other side of his final high school campaign.

The family connection runs deeper than bloodlines. Jacquizz Rodgers trains Williams-Callis between the lines and serves as a mentor off the field—someone who has navigated the path from high school standout to the NFL and can speak to what it takes to get there and stay there. For Landen, that access is something he doesn't take lightly.

Williams-Callis credits his family's foundation—rooted in hard work and instilled by his grandmother—as the driving force behind his approach to the game. With a state championship and the all-time rushing record still on his list of unfinished business, his senior season at Randle carries the weight of everything he has been working toward.
