Seahawks Re-Sign Leonard Williams For Three Years
9 months agoThe Seattle Seahawks agreed to terms on Monday to re-sign star defensive end Leonard Williams to a three-year deal that averages $21.5 million per year, according to a source. Williams began last season with the New York Giants before being traded to the Seahawks, where he excelled in 10 games, recording 41 tackles (24 solo), four sacks, nine tackles for loss and 11 QB hits. The former sixth overall pick by the New York Jets in 2015 out of USC will stick around under new defensive-minded head coach Mike Macdonald in Seattle for his first full campaign with the team in 2024. The 29-year-old has high draft pedigree but has only recorded double-digit sacks once, when he came up with 11.5 sacks in 16 games (12 starts) with the G-Men back in 2020.
