The Seahawks traded for veteran defensive lineman Leonard Williams. Let’s look at what makes him such a quality player.
Last week, the Seattle Seahawks lost impact defender Uchenna Nwosu for the remainder of the season due to a torn pec. In response to that loss, John Schneider went ahead and traded for one of the NFL’s better defensive linemen in Leonard Williams. It is not a like for like swap in terms of position. However, from a production standpoint, Williams will step in seamlessly. Since the start of the 2020 season , Williams has amassed 22 sacks, 25 tackles for loss, and 61 QB hits.
With a lot of pass rushers, especially interior defensive linemen, once their first pass rush move does not work they do not have a chance at getting to the quarterback. That is not the case with Williams though. He has a deep counter game and is able to adapt on most rushes. On this play we can see Williams original intention is to swipe the hands of the right guard and split him and the center. However, the center is over in time which forces Leonard up field.
