6 winners and losers from the Patriots hiring Terrell Williams as defensive coordinator

The New England Patriots hired Terrell Williams as the team’s defensive coordinator on Wednesday. Here’s who it affects for better, and worse, moving forward.

Winners

DE Keion White: Williams comes to the Patriots with over 25 years of experience along the defensive line and has gotten the most out of pass rushers such as Cameron Wake, Jurrell Casey, Harold Landry, and most recently Aidan Hutchinson. That leaves the arrow pointed up for Keion White, especially as Williams’ mindset up front seems to fit White’s gung-ho play style.

“All we really focus on is getting off the ball, striking blocks and the rest will take care of itself,” Hutchinson said last summer.
