Leonard Williams had an incredible first full season with the Seattle Seahawks. After a productive half-season in Seattle following his mid-season transfer from the New York Giants, ‘Big Cat’ was one of many NFL’s finest inside defensive linemen in 2024.
If solely he was acknowledged accordingly.
Regardless of posting 11 sacks, 28 quarterback hits, and 16 tackles for loss (essentially the most of any inside DL), Williams wasn’t chosen to an All-Professional group and even the preliminary Professional Bowl roster.
And now we’ve another snub so as to add to the checklist.
The NFL posted its prime 50 defensive performs of your complete season (playoffs included). Rayshawn Jenkins’ fumble return landing in opposition to the Giants and Derick Corridor’s scoop and rating in opposition to the Atlanta Falcons had been included, which is nice to see. You already know what didn’t make it?
This play.
It’s solely the longest pick-six by a giant fella within the historical past of the NFL and it turned a possible embarrassing blowout Seahawks loss right into a comeback win over the New York Jets. No huge deal to omit that.
It was seen within the feedback part!
The disrespect has been famous! In some way I really feel that if Williams did that in a Jets or Giants uniform that might’ve skyrocketed to the highest of the checklist.
Oh properly. Let him preserve wreaking havoc on opposing offenses whether or not the league acknowledges his greatness or not.
