In Episode 30 of Fireside Giants, a New York Giants Podcast, Alex Wilson and Anthony Rivardo dive into Leonard Williams and the crazy amount of money he’s asking for.
According to Ralph Vacchiano of SNY, Williams is seeking $18-20 million after the 2020 season. The Giants placed the franchise tag on Williams, which will pay him $16.1 million as an interior defensive lineman.
Williams has been efficient in drawing double teams, but his sack totals are disappointing, earning just 0.5 sacks in 2019. He is three years removed from a 7.0 sack performance with the New York Jets.
