Statistical analysis shows Pro Bowl decision was wrong about Leonard Williams

Tyler Alsin is a Washington native who has covered the Seattle Seahawks since 2019. He has a background in writing and public speaking, and is incredibly grateful for the team and position at Field Gulls, where he primarily writes opinion and player profile pieces.

Seattle Seahawks defensive tackle Leonard Williams is a Pro Bowl alternate, as the voting went in favor of Jalen Carter, Vita Vea and Dexter Lawrence.

Is the Pro Bowl voting a name-brand contest, or is it statistic based? You decide.
