Ja’Dyn Williams, Linebacker

#9 Ja’Dyn Williams watches the coin toss vs Warren.

Ja’Dyn Williams had a wild game. He scooped up a loose ball and took it to the house for his first defensive touchdown, picked up a sack, had 3 tackles-for-loss, and recovered a second fumble. There is not much more that one can write about Williams that has not already been written– he is a clear defensive MVP and a once-in-a-generation type linebacker. On Friday he was flying all around the field in a manner reminiscent of Chris Spielman. For his ever-excellent play, Ja’Dyn Williams is once again in the defensive spotlight.
