Green Bay Packers safety Evan Williams played a season-high 78 snaps in Sunday’s win over the Los Angeles Rams. In fact, it was more snaps than he had played in the first four games combined.
For the first month of the season, Williams had primarily served as the third safety behind Xavier McKinney and Javon Bullard. However, Green Bay decided to shuffle their secondary in Week 5, allowing the rookie fourth-rounder to take on an expanded role on defense.
Williams made the most of the opportunity, leading the team with 10 tackles and breaking up two passes, including one on the final fourth-down attempt to secure the win.
