Last week, we explored the potential role of Detroit Lions defensive tackle Nick Williams. Though many believed he was going to be one of the easier cuts to be made by new general manager Brad Holmes, the Lions opted to keep Williams instead, though after reworking his contract to a more palatable cap hit in 2021.
It turns out Williams caught wind of the article, and wasn’t very appreciative of the image we chose (he also appeared to have other issues with the article that he kept to himself). From there, his former Chicago Bears teammate and Pro Bowl defensive tackle Akiem Hicks found the article and gave his own analysis of the veteran defender.
