The Seahawks are coming off their Week 10 bye, which appears to have been the moment of reflection for Williams to finally decide to close the book on his NFL career. Williams had started all nine of the Seahawks’ games this season. The seven-year veteran was in his first season with Seattle after signing a one-year, $6 million deal in August.
Williams was coming off a season-ending ACL tear, which he suffered in Week 14 of the 2023 season as a member of the Miami Dolphins. That was the second time in his NFL career that he suffered a torn ACL.
The Texas product entered the league as a second-round pick of the Dallas Cowboys in 2018. He played his first four years in the league with Dallas before signing a two-year, $14 million contract with the Dolphins in the spring of 2022. .
Williams started 86 of his 92 games played in the regular season.
As for what’s next for Seattle, Olu Oluwatimi is the club’s new starting center when it hosts the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday. Oluwatimi is a 2023 fifth-round pick out of Michigan and has one start (Week 7 in 2023) under his belt.
