Leonard Williams remains in Seattle. ESPN announces that the defensive tackle has signed a new three-year, $64.5 million contract.
Of this total, 48.85 million would be guaranteed. The Seahawks are therefore checking off one of their offseason priorities.
Leonard Williams arrived from the Giants in a trade during last season. In 10 games with Seattle last season, Williams had 41 tackles and 4 sacks. He is 29 years old. With a 2nd round pick and a 5th round pick given up to get him back, it seemed important to play the long game.
Noah Fant also stays in Seattle
Noah Fant also arrived at the Seahawks thanks to a trade. For him, it was from Denver, when Russell Wilson made the trip in the opposite direction.
The tight end is also eligible for a new contract. He signs for 2 years and 21 million dollars, with a signing bonus of 9 million as a bonus.
In two seasons in Seattle, Fant caught 82 passes for 900 yards and 4 touchdowns. He is 26 years old.
