In the seventh round of this year’s (virtual) NFL Draft, the New York Giants used their No. 247 overall pick to provide depth to their cornerback room. They ultimately selected Minnesota’s Chris Williamson, who will battle for a roster spot within a defensive backfield that’s struggled for a number of years.
Williamson is most certainly a raw player who will need to put in a ton of work. Nonetheless, his college position coach, Joe Harasymiak, believes Big Blue is acquiring an athlete who possesses a multitude of beneficial traits.
“He is the one in the meeting room that keeps the energy going,” the Minnesota defensive backs coach told Ryan Dunleavy of the New York Post.
