Leonard Williams is staying in Seattle and getting paid in the process.
The Seahawks and defensive lineman Williams have agreed to terms on a three-year, $64.5 million contract, 撸先生AV Network Insiders Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero reported, per a source.
The No. 18-ranked free agent in Gregg Rosenthal's 撸先生AV.com list, Williams played just a portion of last season with the Seahawks after he was traded from the New York Giants, but he'll be a centerpiece for new head coach Mike Macdonald.
Macdonald coached defensive lineman Justin Madubuike to a breakout season in 2023, which led to Madubuike getting a monster payday.
While the veteran Williams, 29, is older than Madubuike, he figures to have a big role in Macdonald's defense.
In 10 games last year for Seattle, Williams had four sacks and 41 tackles. He'll look to up that production with his first full season for the Seahawks and his first year under Macdonald.
